Julia Rose responds to Harry Jowsey cheating allegations YouTube: Impaulsive Clips/ Instagram: Harry JowseyJulia Rose has addressed allegations from Netflix star Harry Jowsey that she cheated on him with Jake Paul, explaining that she broke up with him because she saw “red-flags.” [jwplayer QIWQDyD7] Harry Jowsey, who is known for the Netflix show Too Hot to Handle, accused Jake Paul’s ex-girlfriend Julia Rose of being unfaithful to him last week in an interview with The Hollywood Fix. He even admitted to wanting to fight Jake, adding that he thought Julia used him to get back with the YouTube star, saying “I’ll box the f*** out of him.” Harry and Julia began dating in October, confirmed by several videos of the pair getting close in public. However, it seems that the relationship was short-lived after she was spotted in one of Jake Paul’s Instagram stories. In response to Harry’s accusations, Jake said, “I think he’s a little delusional….they weren’t dating, he thought that they were dating.” Julia-Rose and Jake Paul became an official item in March, but the on-off couple seemed to split for good in May. Now it appears that they might be back together, with Harry left out in the cold. The model and reality tv star addressed the situation in the latest episode of Logan Paul’s podcast Impaulsive. She explained that she and Jake broke up at the beginning of June and that Harry was the first person she had dated since. She continued that after connecting on her podcast The Sh*t Show, he slid into her DMs and they went on a spontaneous trip to Malibu, but that she wasn’t looking for anything serious, and even denied proposing to him. “He was very wanting love…and I felt like you know those people that if they’re looking for a relationship through anything it was like they’ll take any kind of relationship that they can get. It was super super fast and a lot of different red flags came up. “He would always bring up ‘my ex when we first started dating made me block you like I wasn’t allowed to follow you’ and it was almost a flex type thing of almost like he was flexing a new Rolex…I kind of said I felt he was dating me for the wrong reasons.” She also added that she felt that Harry was overreacting as they dated for only a week. Despite the dramatic breakup over a week-long fling, there is no confirmation as to whether Jake Paul and Julia Rose are officially back on again.

In a conversation about whether Julia considered herself ex-boyfriend Kanye West’s muse, she responded: “I was Josh Safdie’s muse when he wrote Uncut Gems.” Viewers immediately caught on to Julia’s slightly bizarre pronunciation of ‘Uncut Gems’ and started making videos responding to the viral clip.

Julia Fox stunned by TikToker’s viral “skin tape” anti-aging hack TikTok: officiallyval / YouTube: Call Her DaddyActress and model Julia Fox was quite impressed with one TikToker’s viral anti-aging hack using tape to hold her face up at night – but commenters weren’t here for it. TikTok is home to a haven of fashion and beauty tricks. However, some of these so-called ‘hacks’ are a bit more complicated than others… and some are downright confusing. In fact, some of these beauty tips have come under fire from TikTok viewers, like when one user claimed she “trained” her facial muscles to stop moving as a way to prevent getting fine lines and wrinkles. Now, another TikToker has come forward with her method on how she combats smile lines — and she does it by fighting gravity with face tape. TikTok user Valerie ‘officiallyval’ says that she’s been taping her face at night for a while now as a way to fight off facial asymmetry and wrinkles. More specifically, she uses skin tape, which is generally used for first-aid bandages. When using the tape overnight, Valerie claims that her wrinkles “aren’t as bad” as they usually are when she wakes up in the morning. “I feel like at night, when I’m sleeping, I feel like I scrunch up my face, because sometimes I’ll wake up with one little fine line, and I’m like, where is this from?” the influencer said. “So I’ve been taping this here, and I wake up without any wrinkles there.” Julia Fox reacts to viral TikTok face-taping beauty hack Valerie’s TikTok clip has racked up over 2.6 million views at the time of writing and even caught the attention of actress and model Julia Fox, who admitted that she also uses the trick to combat ageing. “Omggg, I thought I was the only person that did this,” she wrote in a comment. However, many viewers weren’t excited about Valerie’s anti-aging method, with quite a few commenters telling the influencer to “free herself” from beauty standards and enjoy getting older. “Girl, free yourself,” one user wrote. “You’re beautiful.” “…it’s okay to age,” another commented. “It’s okay.” Valerie has since replied to some of the critical comments on her post, saying in response to one user’s advice: “Ageing is a privilege. Don’t take the title too seriously, ageing is beautiful.” This is just the latest beauty tip to garner criticism after experts warned against using calamine lotion on the face as a makeup primer.

Julia Fox divides TikTok after claiming she dated Kanye West to “get him off Kim’s case” TIKTOK: juliafoxJulia Fox went viral on TikTok after claiming that she only dated Kanye West to “distract” him from ex-wife Kim Kardashian. After a critic accused her of dating a “famously violent misogynist and anti-Semite,” Julia shared a video in response to explain her relationship with Kanye West. The actress said she dated the rapper to “distract” him from Kim Kardashian, though she also claimed he had been acting “normal” when they first met. “By the time me and him got together, he hadn’t been doing anything out there yet. The only thing he had done was change the name in the song and said like, ‘Come back to me, Kimberly,’” Julia said in the video, which has amassed over 6.3 million views. “But then I had this thought, I was like, ‘Oh, my God, maybe I can get him off of Kim’s case,” she said. “Maybe I can distract him, just get him to like me, and I knew if anyone can do it, it’s me.’” The ‘Uncut Gems’ star also claimed she broke up with the rapper “the moment he started tweeting” about Kim, as she realized he still wasn’t over his ex. “I wanted to help him. I sounded almost as dumb as you guys, saying that I should’ve done something to stop him from saying – like, what? But anyway, I was delusional,” she said. In the comments, several TikTok users praised Julia for her honesty. “Giving us this tea for free is more charity than the Kardashians have ever done,” one wrote. “I love your openness and transparency so much, Julia you’re a national treasure,” another added. Others criticized her, claiming she knew about Kanye’s controversies before and while dating him. “She dated him AFTER he created a naked doll of a woman who very publicly did not like him. And after he said slavery was a choice. Both public,” one user commented. “Kanye was literally berating Kim on social media whilst he was with Julia, so if the plan wasn’t working, why did she stay,” another wrote. In a follow-up clip, Julia defended Kanye as an artist, noting “a lot of really good things” about him despite the “really, really messed up” things he’s said or done.

Julia Fox divides viewers after sharing parenting advice on TikTok INSTAGRAM: JULIAFOXJulia Fox’s viral video giving controversial parenting advice has left viewers divided on TikTok. In a viral TikTok video, which has almost 3 million views, the ‘Uncut Gems’ actress gave some parenting tips to her 316,000 followers. She shared her philosophy on “the concept of childhood,” and made a comment that parents should buy their children cleaning supplies instead of toys. “I think that the idea of childhood was invented as a way to just get parents to spend a lot of money on sh*t that’s… not really teaching your kid anything,” the mother of one shared. “You just end up kind of raising a kid that’s like helpless and doesn’t know what to do.” She noted that her son doesn’t care about his toys, and advised parents to buy their children cleaning supplies, such as a broom or a mop. “I found that with my son, he doesn’t care about his toys, and he is actually more interested in like what I’m doing,” she shared. “So I suggest that everyone buy their kid a mini-mop and mini-broom and start teaching them those life skills really young, so when they enter the real world they don’t have to outsource for everything.” Julia concluded: “And they know how to do things for themselves. I think that’s really important.” TikTok divided over Julia Fox’s parenting advice Thousands of TikTok users took to the comment section to share their thoughts on the model’s parenting tips. “Completely agree my son has been doing electric work in our home since he was 1.5 yrs,” one parent quipped. “Yes, everyone always compliments my daughters vocabulary/speech and it is because i have always conversed with her like a human, not a helpless being,” another one shared. Some people disagreed with Julia however, and criticized her advice. “Giving kids toys that don’t necessarily have a purpose (to us) isn’t ‘pointless,’ it aids in their cognitive/physical development! Toys aren’t useless,” someone wrote. “I would argue that the concept of childhood is more about protecting people at the most vulnerable stage of their life than selling products?” another one added. “Sounds like child labor,” a third user commented. Julia responded to the criticism by sharing a video of her with her 19-month-old son Valentino. She asked her baby “Do you work in a labor camp?” In response, he buried his face in his mom’s lap, prompting her to say, “The answer is no.”

Julia Fox calls Addison Rae her “muse” and reveals plans to collab on a big project Instagram: juliafox, addisonraeeJulia Fox called TikToker Addison Rae her “muse” after revealing the two are working on a big project. Model Julia Fox was interviewed by Rolling Stone earlier in May 2024 and revealed that she is working with TikToker Addison Rae on a huge project. While the details are sparse, Julia said their collaboration would be a “cultural moment for the herstory books,” meaning the project would be monumental for women in history. Not only that, but she called the star her muse after expressing her love for the TikToker. “I love her so much. She is such a pure, genuine soul.” The model continued, “She inspires me. She’s my muse currently.” Though not much has been confirmed, fans are still excited about the collaboration. In an Instagram post made to Instagram from Entertainment Tonight, they shared their anticipation. “Can’t wait,” commented one fan. “…wish them the best in their journey,” added another. Others were happy to see women supporting women, and many agreed that it was refreshing. “A woman calling another woman her muse is the kind of support we need to give each other,” wrote one fan. “Women supporting women, the best!!” added another. While Julia’s “muse,” Addison, has grown her TikTok following to over 88M, she’s also transitioned into acting over the years. She’s even joining the cast of Animal Friends alongside Ryan Reynolds, Vince Vaughn, and Jason Mamoa. The live-action animated comedy will be released in 2025. Addison even gained more fans when she appeared in Season 4 of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, as she featured as Kourtney Kardashian’s friend. The two continued their friendship after meeting in 2020, and Kourtney even had a cameo in Netflix’s He’s All That alongside Addison.

Julia Fox calls Kanye West relationship “overwhelming” and “unsustainable” Instagram: juliafoxJulia Fox explained what it was like dating Kanye West, claiming that his relationship tendencies were too much to handle. Julia Fox and Kanye West dated for a couple of months at the beginning of 2022, but amicably called off their relationship quite quickly. Their time together may have been short, but Fox opened up on The Drew Barrymore Show about what it was like dating West, saying that it was “overwhelming and so unsustainable.” Fox also explained that she had a child to care for, so taking on West’s needs in their relationship was not to her liking. Julia Fox relates dating Kanye West to having a second child to care for In Julia Fox’s memoir ‘Down the Drain,’ she addressed her time with Kanye West. She recalled their spark first starting when a mutual friend asked her to give them her number to give to West. Though the two would talk on the phone for hours, Fox said she was soon unable to accommodate West’s relationship urgencies, as she shared on The Drew Barrymore Show that the amount of time West wanted to spend on the phone became too much for her to handle. Mentioning that she already had a toddler to care for, Fox said, “Ultimately, I think he needed a full-time person, and I just couldn’t be full-time. I had my son and then [Kanye would] wanna talk on the phone a lot.” Fox continued, “Like, I’d have to change diapers and so I bought a pair of AirPods so I could keep it in while I was doing mom stuff. It was just — it was so overwhelming and so unsustainable.” She then expressed to Barrymore that being with West was like having another child, saying, “My son has to be first. It just became too much, like I didn’t sign up to have two babies, you know?” Ultimately, West’s relationship tendencies were too much for Fox and they called it off after no more than two months. Though Fox is currently single, West married Bianca Censori in December 2022.

Judge in Phantomlord case rules clause in Twitch contract was unconscionable TwitchThe first crucial decision in the Phantomlord vs Twitch lawsuit was reached yesterday when Judge Karnow of the Superior Court of California ruled that the limited liability clause in James Varga’s contract was unconscionable. Varga, who was removed from the Twitch platform for running a skins gambling casino where he seemingly rigged outcomes in his favour, has been embroiled in legal action against the streaming platform on the belief his ban was unfair. The first point of contention was a “limited liability clause” in his contract, designed to limit how much he could have claimed in damages should a court rule in his favour. Twitch’s contract included a $50,000 limit on any damages parties could claim from one another in the result of a lawsuit, a clause that is understood to be included in other contracts issued to streamers at that time. The judge’s ruling now opens the door to Varga being able to make a claim for damages in excess in $50,000 although this ruling in no way passes judgment on the validity of such a case. In contract law, unconscionability is a term used to describe a situation surrounding an agreement that is unjust or overwhelmingly one-sided, in favour of a party that has superior bargaining power, such that entering into the agreement would be contrary to good conscience to the party negatively affected. 700Following a three day hearing in August that included live testimony, presentation of evidence and analysis of depositions, the court was given the task to go over each of the arguments presented by Varga’s legal counsel. The judge concluded that there was indeed some procedural unconscionability on the basis of “oppression” when it came to contract negotiations. “Varga had some college education, had been in contractual relationships before, such as with Own3d and others” the court document reads, “but as I note below there was a significant disparity in legal sophistication and Varga did not use an attorney. These factors on balance suggest some oppression.” The judge also observed that some procedural unconscionability was present due to Varga not understanding the significance of his bargaining power at the time of negotiations. When it came to the matter of substantive unconscionability, meaning the terms of the contract are objectively unfair as presented, the judge ruled that the clause alone was so one-sidedly in favour of Twitch that he couldn’t view it any other way. “Varga’s monthly income averaged over $5,000 per month and appeared to cluster around $10,000 per month… so the $50,000 cap is incommensurate as to be unconscionable” Judge Karnow wrote. The judge also added in their conclusions “there is no reason to limit Varga to $50,000 when he might be entitled to a much, much higher sum… From a practical point of view, which I think is essential consideration, limiting recovery to $50,000 virtually kills off the odds of a suit against Twitch at all. The agreement doesn’t appear to have an attorney fees clause and few – if any – lawyers would take on a contingency case against Twitch for some reasonable percentage of $50,000. The cap is unconscionable.” Several other of Varga’s arguments were shot down by the judge, including one where he claimed to have not read the contract, that was sent to him electronically via Hellosign, because he didn’t know he could scroll down through the pages. “I think if you hit the scroll wheel, it might work” Varga said during a deposition “but there was a big button for me to ‘sign here,’ ‘continue’ and that’s what’s like in different colours. So I clicked that as thinking that’s what I had to do.” “So you just had to do that” came the follow-up question. “You couldn’t scroll around and take a look at the agreement?” “Again, I didn’t know if that’s what needed to be done” Varga responded. The judge decided this explanation was insufficient to explain why Varga had not read the contract. “I find the suggestion, if that is what it is, incredible” they said. “Varga, who spent virtually all his waking hours on computers and was familiar with a variety of programs knew he could scroll through the agreement… He simply chose not to do so.” While the ruling of unconscionability will come as a blow to Twitch in this case, it was also expressly stated that this ruling does not affect claims for intentional misrepresentation, negligent misrepresentation or section 17200 of the Business and Professions Code, which refers to unlawful, unfair or fraudulent business acts. These are all components of Twitch’s counter-filing against Varga. There will now be a case management conference to discuss what happens next in this landmark case.

Judge sides with Twitch over Phantloml0rd ban in final lawsuit ruling Twitter: Phantoml0rd / TwitchThe judge presiding over the James ‘PhantomL0rd’ Varga vs Twitch lawsuit has issued a final statement of decision, in which he highlights many holes in Phantoml0rd’s case, which led to Twitch only having to pay around $20,000 in damages rather than the $100 million initially requested. In April, the court ruled that Twitch had to pay Phantoml0rd $20,720.34 in damages, over a dispute which arose from Twitch’s decision to permanently ban the streamer in 2016. However, although Varga ‘won’ the lawsuit “on all counts” (in his own words), Judge Curtis E.A Karnow’s statement of decision on September 1 reveals more about the proceedings, and why Varga’s legal team failed in their pursuit of tens of millions in damages. At the outset, “Varga’s counsel alleged to damages in the range on $15 million to 100 million.” This request was then revised to only $12 million, before later being raised again to as much as $63 million. In the end, the $20,720.34 was largely due to the jury finding that Twitch had violated a provision in Varga’s contract that he should receive 30-days notice before being banned. Phantoml0rd claimed he was ‘singled out’ During the case, it was argued by Varga’s team that Twitch had treated him unfairly, compared to other streamers, namely Sodapoppin. The judge explains it was argued that “Varga was the ‘scapegoat’ and although he was banned, another popular but similarly abusive streamer named Sodapoppin was not banned.” “This was one of Varga’s core themes at trial. Twitch noted Varga’s extraordinarily high number of violations and Varga retorted with Sodapoppin’s 34 violations.” However, Twitch argued that each streamer’s “disciplinary record” is treated separately, on a case-by-case basis. The judge also went into detail about Phantoml0rd’s violations on the Twitch platform, which include passing out drunk, “simulating sexual intercourse”, as well as sexually suggestive and racist content. Phantoml0rd testified he didn’t know about TOS It is also told how Phantoml0rd claimed under oath that he “didn’t know about the TOS” (Twitch’s terms of service), or “didn’t recall”, but the judge found that he was not telling the truth. Because, it was made abundantly clear to all in the courtroom that Varga did in fact know about the TOS, when they were “shown a YouTube video which Varga posted which shows Varga looking at Twitch’s TOS and rules of conduct in 2016.” The judge also noted that “Varga had other serious issues with his credibility, too.” Judge sides with Twitch on ban decision Finally, the judge concluded that Twitch benefitted “the real consumers here who are the viewers (including teenagers) who no longer were exposed to his abusive behaviors. “While consumers might have been disadvantaged by not being able to watch Varga’s high-quality gameplay on Twitch (a consumer injury Varga never argues), they can do so on e.g., YouTube.” In conclusion, the judge expects Twitch will not repeat its “ham-fisted” response to Varga’s “abusive actions”, as the lawsuit itself cost the streaming platform “almost half a million dollars on its expert, and I expect attorney’s fees far exceed that. That should be enough to get Twitch’s internal legal team motivated.” In the claim of unfair competition law (UCL), the judge states “judgement should be entered for Twitch and against Varga on the UCL claim.”

Jschlatt teases return to Twitch after year of not streaming YouTube: JSchlattContent creator Jschlatt has suggested on Twitter that he may be making a return to streaming soon after sticking only to YouTube uploads for the past year, leaving his fans hopeful. Jschlatt is a popular YouTuber who makes content about a variety of games like Among Us, and has also participated in the streamer dating show Love or Host. He has over 2.5 million subscribers on his YouTube channels combined, and while he used to actively stream on Twitch, he hasn’t done so in around a year. Back in August 2020, the YouTuber uploaded a video in which he explained why he hadn’t been streaming since the middle of January that year. He explained that he used to stream daily on Twitch during the SMPLive era, a popular Minecraft server, as well as previously streaming weekly on YouTube. In order to keep up the momentum of being on Twitch, Jschlatt explained that he felt like he “needed to be funny 24/7,” and due to the fact that people only seemed to want to watch him play Minecraft, he would see his view count plummet when he played other games. For that reason, he shifted his focus to YouTube content and stopped streaming from his Twitch channel, though some fans were left wondering if the decision was permanent or temporary. On January 24, streamer Ludwig replied to one of Jschlatt’s tweets remarking, “one year since u last streamed big guy,” to which he simply replied “soon…” with a smiley emoji. While there are of course no details as to when exactly this might be, the brief interaction seems to have got some fans wondering if Jschlatt really is planning on making a return. “What the f**k does this mean, WHAT DOES IT MEAN,” one fan replied, another saying “I don’t care if you stream or not as long as you keep being yourself big guy.” I don’t care if you stream or not as long as you keep being yourself big guy — Ranchy boi (@Ololoops) January 24, 2021 It seems that as excited as fans might be, they’re ready to support Jschlatt with whatever he decides to do with regard to streaming, and hope that there’ll be more content from him on the horizon.

Jschlatt under fire as Hatsune Miku collaboration sparks outrage YouTube: JschlattLIVE / SEGA, Crypton Future MediaPopular YouTuber Jschlatt is coming under fire after he announced his upcoming collaboration with the iconic Vocaloid, Hatsune Miku. Jschlatt is a prominent YouTuber, boasting nearly four million subscribers on his YouTube channel and over two million on Twitch. Like many content creators, he boasts his very own merch line, which includes a plush figure of his avatar, a fluffy ram named ‘Rammie.’ It looks like his merchandise is about to get a huge boost, though, as it was recently announced that he will be collaborating with none other than famous Vocaloid Hatsune Miku who will get her own version of the Rammie plush. Fans outraged after Hatsune Miku collabs with YouTuber Jschlatt For those not in the loop, Hatsune Miku is a ‘virtual idol’ called a Vocaloid. Vocaloids are a singing software created by Yamaha that are helpful for music producers. Each Vocaloid has its own character, and Miku is arguably the most prominent out of the lot. The news was announced via Twitter on July 17, showing a teaser of a blue Rammie plush wearing Miku’s signature headphones. However, not everyone is pleased by this sudden collaboration. Plenty of critics have taken to social media in protest, with some wondering why the world’s most famous Vocaloid would collaborate with a YouTuber in the first place. “Who forced Miku into this?” one user asked. “Miku don’t freak out, but I think they forced you to collab with Jschlatt,” another said. Still others pointed out Jschlatt’s previous controversies, with some critics calling him “racist” due to a past incident where he created a thumbnail using the word “blackface” in 2021. However, other fans are extremely excited about this collaboration and are celebrating it on social media. This is just the latest major Vocaloid news to go viral after Hatsune Miku and other Vocaloids made their first canonical appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the latest Guardians of the Galaxy movie.

Jschlatt stopped by police after renting Lambo for OTK announcement video YouTube: OTKThe filming process for Jschlatt’s announcement video for streaming organization OTK didn’t quite go to plan after he got pulled over for speeding in a Lamborghini he rented for the project. YouTuber Jschlatt made the announcement on June 23 that he has joined streaming org One True King a.k.a. OTK. The company is run by creators such as Mizkif, Asmongold, Esfand, and more, who focus on creating online content together. As Jschlatt explained in his own video, he now owns equity in OTK, and the team gave him $10,000 to film a video announcing the latest addition to the organization. The YouTuber certainly didn’t hold back, going to shooting ranges, using a flamethrower, and even renting a red Lamborghini to make the most of the sizeable budget he’d been given. Although he got a lot of attention for the vehicle, they encountered an unexpected issue when it started smoking out of nowhere. He explained they had to keep their speed under 30mph for the vast majority of the trip, but on their way back the issue seemed to stop. But then they ran into another issue. In behind-the-scenes footage, Jschlatt shows a clip of himself sitting in the car, with police car lights flashing through the window behind him. He revealed that he’d received a speeding ticket for going 56mph in a 45mph zone. “Do you have nothing going on today,” he said about the officer, “like are you finally done shooting people? What the f**k is this for? I was literally following traffic, in the middle of a crowded town. We had just passed the f**king intersection, just started rolling again.” Topic starts at 3:05 “Too bad you didn’t get to see me doing 130 in the thing a couple minutes before. That would have been a better ticket,” he added. While not everything went to plan, the announcement video certainly turned out great, and there’s no doubt fans are looking forward to seeing Jschlatt make more content alongside the OTK team.

Jschlatt admits he “no longer enjoys” YouTube, is considering quitting permanently YouTube: JschlattPopular One True King content creator Jonathan “Jschlatt” Schlatt is on the verge of quitting YouTube, admitting he “no longer enjoys making videos” like he used to, and wants to step away from the platform permanently. Jschlatt has been a popular figure on YouTube over the past eight years, and rose to explosive Minecraft stardom on the SMPLive server alongside other modern internet icons like CallMeCarson and Dream. His YouTube journey may soon be over, however, after Schlatt admitted he “no longer enjoys” creating content anymore. The YouTube star dropped his bombshell on Sep. 2. “I usually clickbait you guys, so I imagine most people think I’m joking… some elaborate scheme. But, it’s not. I have not enjoyed making videos on YouTube for a while now,” Schlatt said in a video titled “I’ve been thinking of retiring.” “I guess you guys might have been able to pick up on that fact, given I haven’t really uploaded in two months, it’s been all but radio silence from my camp. And even my most recent videos have just been me sitting down, talking about how grumpy I am. It’s been ‘old man yells at clouds’ for months. “And honestly, what right do I have to complain about my situation, getting three million views on every f**king video. It just doesn’t seem that fair.” Jschlatt went on to reveal he’s “hit rock bottom” recently. First, it was a health scare with his cat, who had to have “round-the-clock care” after swallowing several fridge magnets. He has also been couch surfing and bouncing from new apartment to new apartment, after his house was sold. Then, as he came to terms with both of those problems, his grandma passed away. “It’s just been bad luck after bad luck after bad luck,” a teary Schlatt said. “I feel like Minecraft Steve, who just made a dirt hut with no door, and a one-block wide chest, and a bed, and that’s all I got. And it’s grass now, I’ve got the green top.” The YouTuber revealed while he had been struggling through the last few months, he took a long look at his career. The introspective unveiled one thing for him: no matter if he quits, “someone else would just take his place.” “I’m replaceable,” he admitted. “I can walk out the door, and out pops another dude with a New York hat and a funny accent, and he’ll do my same job.” The One True King content creator revealed he already has a plan post-YouTube; the Minecraft star will be developing and producing an internet talk show. Jschlatt doesn’t have a name yet, but says it’s coming “soon.” “The most fun I’ve had in recent memory was when I went to LA for my podcast,” he explained. “Me, and a few others just sat down in this beautiful f**king set, it was sick, we got Michael Reeves on, we got Game Grumps on, all these people I respect. It was so much fun. That’s the kind of stuff I wanna do. “I have thought about throwing in the towel, retiring, quitting, but I have a lot in the pipeline. I’m willing to give it all another shot, in another way.”

Jschlatt launches ‘Did Schlatt Win’ debate podcast with first episode Twitter: @jschlattYouTuber and Twitch streamer Jschlatt has revealed his brand new debate podcast called ‘Did Shclatt Win?’ with its first episode arguing if cats or dogs make better pets. YouTube and Twitch content creator Jschlatt had an eventful 2022, that began with a massive return to streaming regularly at the tail end of 2021. Since then, the streamer has experienced continued success on both content creation platforms as well as through his podcast, Chuckle Sandwich, co-hosted by fellow YouTuber Ted Nivison. Now, Schlatt has announced another podcast called ‘Did Schlatt Win,’ which he dubbed “the angriest, most unimportant debate podcast you’ll ever listen to.” Jschlatt launches new debate podcast Jschlatt revealed the podcast on March 8, 2023, on Twitter. The podcast itself seems to be centered around fairly light-hearted and comedic debates, as the official channel describes it as “the least important arguments you’ll ever listen to.” The first episode is roughly half an hour and features Schlatt debating fellow Twitch streamer Jack Manifold as they debate over which household pet is better: cats or dogs. At the time of writing the channel has already gained nearly 20,000 subscribers as the video has garnered over 25,000 views and counting. Additionally, it seems some other well-known content creators are interested in Schlatt’s new venture as well, as popular Twitch streamer Hasanabi replied to the announcement tweet. “I will destroy you anytime anyplace,” Hasan tweeted at Schlatt, to which the podcast host fired back “I’ll be in touch soon. I’ve got a bone to pick with you.” Jschlatt surely has other guests and topics planned out in advance, so it’s unclear who may be appearing in future episodes of ‘Did Schlatt Win?’ Still, it’s clear that Hasan would make a great for a great episode, considering the streamer’s penchant for live debates.

Jschlatt mocks Dream’s hoodie merch following backlash over simple design YouTube: JschlattWhen Minecraft YouTuber Dream launched his own line of merch, featuring hoodies with a smiley face, it drew some criticism that the designs were lazy. After a while, the drama died down – but fellow YouTuber Jschlatt isn’t letting him forget about it. Dream has never revealed his face, and instead has worn a simple mask with a smiley face drawn on to conceal what he looks like. He even recently released a new song, titled ‘Mask’, explaining the reasons he wears the mask, and how it is linked to mental health and fame. But, when Dream released his merch back in March, there was a notable backlash because of how basic the design was. The hoodies featured nothing more than the drawn ‘smile’. Dream responded to the criticism by explaining: “I don’t mind most of my Merch being simple because people like it, and that’s my brand! My Youtube PFP is drawn in paint as well. Simplicity can be good sometimes.” Although fans were still split on if the merch was lazy or just on-brand, the drama over Dream’s merch quickly died down. But, JSchlatt hasn’t forgotten. During his video roasting the worst brand redesigns, the YouTuber joked that he was remaking his own plushie logo to be just basic shapes, and showed Dream’s merch: “This is my new merch, it’s simple, which means it’s good,” he said, mimicking Dream’s explanation. Topic starts at 4:25 Although Jschlatt was (mostly) joking, the pair do have a bit of a turbulent history. In July 2020, there was controversy after Dream ‘kicked’ Jschlatt from a Minecraft livestream. Jschlatt said that ‘Twitter had decided his fate’, after there was a trend on the social media platform to kick him from the stream. Jschlatt had not been expected to join the stream, and it’s believed that Dream adhered to his fans’ requests to kick the YouTuber. Dream assured fans in a YouTube comment that it wasn’t that big of a deal, but that he wasn’t happy someone else had invited players to his server.

Jschlatt cops Twitter backlash after fans uncover old “Islamophobic” tweets YouTube: JschlattTwitter is blowing up over comments Jschlatt made in 2018 that have been deemed ‘Islamaphobic,’ although some fans brushed it off as a “joke” and slammed others for “purposefully” trying to dig up some dirt. Jschlatt returned on Twitch in January 2021 after taking a year-long break to focus on YouTube content. Since then, he’s found himself on the right side of issues in the public eye, such as cutting ties with Carson ‘CallMeCarson’ King and mocking Dream’s ‘simplistic’ merch. However, some people have turned on him after someone dug up an old comment he wrote that has been labeled Islamaphobic. In response to streamer Robert ‘Aplfisher’ Fisher’s zoomed-in selfie, Jschlatt wrote, “The face of Allah.” https://twitter.com/defnoodles/status/1409636174713393153?s=20 It went unnoticed at the time. However, now that it’s blown up again on social media, Twitter users are pouring in to express their concerns. “What the f**k? I don’t give a sh*t if it was from three f**king years ago. What in the actual hell? Goodf**king bye!” wrote one outraged fan. “I have no issue at people who are mad at this because it’s perfectly fine to be,” wrote another. However, that same person was also annoyed that someone went out of their way to dig it up again, which they believe will only cause “more harm.” The sentiment was shared by several others, who added that it was only a “joke” and wouldn’t be considered controversial if he had written “god” instead of “Allah.” https://twitter.com/defnoodles/status/1409636184469303302?s=20 Jschlatt’s comments clearly offended some people, and the whole debacle has snowballed into a heated debate. He hasn’t commented on the situation, which could signify that he’s waiting for the waters to settle. But the fiasco might have cost him some fans.

Jschlatt follows in Corpse Husband’s footsteps and unveils Times Square billboard Twitter: JschlattIt’s been a long time coming, but popular YouTuber Johnathan ‘Jschlatt’ Schlatt finally managed to put his face on a Times Square billboard, and his celebratory shot is taking over Twitter. A full year has passed since JSchlatt lost to Corpse Husband in a neck-and-neck race to win a marketing campaign that saw the victor have their face and brand plastered all over a Times Square billboard in New York City. He’s had some ups and downs since then, such as getting banned on Twitch and making his mark on Ludwig’s most profitable video to date. But he hasn’t let the loss go down lightly, and he finally got his revenge. The comedic YouTuber clearly took last year’s loss to heart, referencing Corpse’s “We did it” celebration post by Tweeting out “I finally did it” with an image of the YouTooz collaboration top his 2.8million Twitter followers. The ad itself is advertising the almost sold-out Jschalt X Rammie plushie and slippers sale currently on the YouTooz website. Schlatt’s enthusiasm for the billboard marks a distinct difference from recent YouTube convert Sykunno recently claiming that billboards have no effect on merch sales. The advertised collaboration itself is almost entirely gone, and whether or not the billboard had an impact on the sale of the merch is not currently known. Jschlatt’s clear joy in the image itself is hard to deny. With streamers like Amouranth and Ludwig taking to billboarded skies themselves, it’s clear that streamers making big steps into the real world is a wave that’s only building in momentum. Pushing the sphere of streaming entertainers further into the mainstream.

JPEGMAFIA didn’t hold back in a rant against Kanye West.

Josie Canseco reveals unexpected reason she broke up with Logan Paul imPaulsive, YouTube / Josie Canseco, InstagramYouTube star Logan Paul was spotted holding hands with model Josie Canseco in mid-January — but it looks like the pair have already called it quits, and Paul wasn’t the one who broke things off. Nearly a year after his short-lived fling with Facebook Gaming streamer Corinna Kopf, Paul was spotted getting cozy with Canseco at the Rose Bowl Flea Market, as captured by a few paparazzi pics of the two. However, it seems that the celebrity couple is already donion-rings, with a source close to the stars claiming that Canseco dropped Logan like a hot potato just a month later. According to reports from TMZ, the source claimed that Canseco effectively ghosted her ex-boyfriend, with the two allegedly having parted ways a week ago when she stopped contacting him altogether. It doesn’t seem like their breakup had anything to do with Logan’s “fake dating prank” involving his ex-sister-in-law Tana Mongeau, either, with the source also claiming that Canseco quit speaking to Paul before photos of the two YouTubers went viral. In fact, Canseco reportedly knew that the whole thing was a massive practical joke and is well aware of their friendly, non-romantic relationship. Instead, the source alleges that she felt Paul just “wasn’t the one for her,” and was even concerned that he was using her fame for clout — and odd possibility, considering the internet star boasts over 20 million YouTube subscribers. Thus far, Logan has yet to respond to reports of his split with the model; but it doesn’t look like anything is getting “The Maverick” down, as evidenced by a Tweet he published a few days prior to the news.

Josie Canseco slams Bryce Hall dating rumors after kiss video goes viral YouTube: Bryce Hall / Instagram: josiecansecoAfter his breakup with TikTok star Addison Rae, Bryce Hall has been in a whirl of dating rumors… and despite denying any romantic involvement with Josie Canseco, fans aren’t letting it go. Bryce Hall and Addison Rae were once the star couple of the TikTok fanbase. After an on-again, off-again romance that lasted about a year, the two finally made it official in late 2020. However, cheating rumors would plague the couple shortly thereafter, seeming to spark their breakup a few months later. Ever since then, Addison Rae has purportedly been involved with the likes of rapper Jack Harlowe and guitarist Omer Fedi. Bryce Hall, on the other hand, was fairly low-key about his own love life until quite recently. Last month, fans began pairing him with influencer Riley Hubatka — rumors that weren’t helped by their smooches for thumbnails every other day. Hubatka isn’t the only star that Hall is rumored to be involved with, either; in early June, fans speculated that he was dating model Josie Canseco, after the two were spotted hanging out together. These rumors were exacerbated by a video that showed them kissing at a party in August, which quickly went viral. While Canseco previously claimed that she was “reeeaaallly not dating Bryce Hall,” that doesn’t seem to have fans convinced at all. Five days after Hall’s purported kiss with Canseco took the net by storm, the model appeared in an Instagram story alongside Tana Mongeau, where she gave the camera the middle finger alongside text that says, “Me and Bryce aren’t f**king.” Clearly, she’s had enough of the dating rumors — but as for who Bryce is really dating, it seems fairly unclear. (Fans can watch Josie’s Instagram story by tapping the right arrow in the post below.) View this post on Instagram The former Sway House star (who recently seemed to become a Hype House member) has denied any involvement with just about anyone his fans bring up, even going so far as to insinuate he was completely single after blasting paparazzi for catching him getting dinner with an unknown woman. For now, it looks like fans are in the dark until Hall decides to go public with whoever he so chooses.

Joshua Bassett slams Olivia Rodrigo and Sabrina Carpenter rumors Instagram: @oliviarodrigo / Twitter: Joshua Bassett / Instagram: @sabrinacarpenterJoshua Bassett rubbished claims a love triangle exists between him, Olivia Rodrigo, and Sabrina Carpenter after months of rumors, speculation, and references in lyrics and interviews. Joshua Bassett and Olivia Rodrigo were rumored to be dating but reportedly broke up after Olivia posted a picture wearing a t-shirt that said “dump him” after Joshua was spotted on a date with Sabrina. It sparked an apparent love-triangle feud that snowballed when Olivia released her debut single ‘Drivers License.’ It sounds a lot like a heartbreak anthem, and the lyrics seemingly tell her side of the story. In the first verse, she says, “And you’re probably with that blonde girl who always made me doubt.” Sabrina released her single, ‘Skin,’ about a month later, and it appears she referred to that lyric. “Maybe we could’ve been friends if I met you in another life. Maybe then we could pretend there’s no gravity in the words we write. Maybe you didn’t mean it. Maybe blonde was the only rhyme,” she says. Then, to make matters worse, Joshua was tricked into picking between the songs during a recent interview with PopBuzz. He chose ‘Drivers License,’ which made some fans happy, but — of course — left others furious. However, in a separate interview with ET Canada, he was asked about whether the song was about him, and he played it down, saying, “There’s no response to be made. All I will say is, you know, that’s her story to tell. Whatever the song is to her is her thing to tell, so I’ll let her do that.” He also played down the drama and urged fans to appreciate both artists and their songs. “I hope people don’t forget the value that her and Sabrina bring to the world outside the drama. I hope people will look at the depth of who they are instead of just the surface-level gossip.” The relevant part of the video happens between 1:57 and 2:37. Joshua did an excellent job of diffusing the situation, but fans are still convinced there’s more to it between the lines. We’ll have to wait and see if Olivia and Sabrina add more fuel to the fire or whether they’ll bury the hatchet once and for all.

Josie Canseco reveals reason she rejected insane $400k offer to “stand beside” someone Instagram: josiecansecoInfluencer and model Josie Canseco has had some very high-profile relationships, including with the likes of Brody Jenner and YouTube extraordinaire Logan Paul, but she’s revealed that she’s also had some very strange offers from around the world — and they really value her time. Canseco’s relationship with Logan Paul was one that fans really liked and, by all accounts, appears to have ended on good terms, with rumors even resurfacing that they’re back together in February 2022. Being a model and very popular influencer with over 1.2 million followers on Instagram, you could imagine she gets a lot of lucrative offers from brands as well as celebrities sliding into her DMs. But the extent of the offers she receives is truly crazy. While appearing on David Dobrik’s VIEWS podcast, Dobrik asked about her DMs and some of the offers she’s received over the years — and it’s safe to say he wasn’t prepared for her response. “What’s the craziest offers you’ve got to fly to places?” he asked her, when the topic came up. “Like princes from Dubai. The ones that you’ve blown off.” She said: “I think it was Dubai, I got offered like $400,000 to go and stand alongside someone and I said no. Moral wise, I would literally rather be broke and suffering than crack my morals and do something like that.” Timestamp 8:27 She added that “you never know getting into that situation” and that she “really hates the idea of a man taking care of her or paying for things for her.” While $400k is a lot of money just to stand next to someone, it’s not as though Canseco is short of cash, with a successful career herself, so that type of money isn’t quite as tempting. That said, this is just one example — imagine how much money she might have turned down over the years just from offers like these.

Joshua Bassett reacts to Olivia Rodrigo rumors after ‘Crisis’ backlash YouTube: Vevo, Joshua BassettActor and music artist Joshua Bassett has issued a response after fans lashed out over rumors that his song ‘Crisis’ was taking shots at ‘Driver’s License’ singer Olivia Rodrigo. Olivia Rodrigo took over the internet earlier this year thanks to her heartbreaking hit ‘Driver’s License.’ The breakup anthem details the heartache of the singer, who’d just earned her license and was hoping to celebrate her newfound independence with her boyfriend… who had apparently moved on to someone else. Amid the song’s viral acclaim, fans suspected that the track was throwing not-so-subtle shade toward artist Joshua Bassett, who was rumored to be involved with Rodrigo before opting for actress Sabrina Carpenter. Rodrigo notably denied any rumors that her song was directed toward Carpenter, saying that she “really resented” the “narrative that was being tossed around” at the time. While it’s been a minute since this drama made headlines, it looks like speculation has returned in the wake of Bassett’s new songs, one of which has fans convinced that he’s telling his side of the story from Rodrigo’s ‘Driver’s License.’ His song ‘Crisis’ includes lyrics that say: “And if you get to tell your truth, then so do I /And it’s cool if you want me to play the bad guy / But don’t you dare act like I didn’t love you / Don’t go thinkin’ that I didn’t hurt, too.” Joshua Bassett responds to Olivia Rodrigo ‘Crisis’ rumors This prompted some fans to take their concerns to social media, speculating that Bassett was hitting back at Rodrigo and criticizing both artists for hurting the other based on their experiences as detailed in each song. Bassett has since responded to the rumors in a now-deleted Instagram message, writing: “All I ask is that you treat everyone with respect and love. Anyone who sends hate on my ‘behalf’ is no fan of mine.” Bassett also revealed that he hasn’t spoken to Rodrigo since the release of Driver’s License earlier this year despite his attempts to reach out, and called 2021 one of the most difficult years of his life following fan backlash and hospitalization due to septic shock and heart failure.

Joshua Bassett reveals he nearly died after Olivia Rodrigo’s Drivers License dropped Instagram: joshuatbassettOlivia Rodrigo set the internet ablaze with her song Drivers License, and while many fans wanted a response from Joshua Bassett — the supposed target of the diss — he was actually in the hospital. When it comes to Disney’s High School Musical: The Series, the drama extends beyond the fictional East High School. With rumors flying regarding a supposed relationship between co-stars Olivia Rodrigo and Joshua Bassett, the turmoil even made it onto Saturday Night Live. As Rodrigo continues to break records with her album, Sour, Bassett is well on the way to cementing himself in the TikTok hall of fame for his fun-filled videos. Finally opening up to GQ on all of the Disney Channel drama, he’s confessed that drama surrounding Rodrigo’s now-iconic track, Drivers License, may have caused him so much stress that he actually almost died. Joshua Bassett talks about almost dying In the wake of Drivers License’s insane success, fans automatically assumed that the song’s lyrics were aimed at Bassett and, in turn, that the pair’s non-existent relationship had come to a close. Two days after the song dropped, he was admitted to the hospital with septic shock and heart failure. The star told GQ that he “started getting very ill, and it kept getting worse. I thought it was, like, food poisoning or whatever. It got worse, it got worse, it got worse, it got worse.” Noting that “I’m sure stress had a part in it,” he was hospitalized and informed by doctors “that I had a 30% chance of survival. They told me that if I had not checked into the hospital within 12 hours, I would have been found [dead] in my apartment.” A video from his time in hospital can be seen below. View this post on Instagram As the rumors swirled and the world continued to push for Bassett’s response to Rodrigo’s supposed digs, he “didn’t have any energy to be able to focus on anything but staying alive.” While Bassett appears back to his usual self and urges fans to “focus on these women [Rodrigo and co-star, Sabrina Carpenter] for who they are… instead of their relationship to a boy,” the incident is a reminder that there’s always more going on than meets the eye.

Joshua Bassett drops “coming out video” after revealing Harry Styles crush YouTube: Clevver NewsActor Joshua Bassett, the alleged subject of Olivia Rodrigo’s hit song Drivers License, has dropped a “coming out video” after revealing that he has a crush on Harry Styles. Joshua Bassett stars in Disney’s High School Musical: The Musical: The Series alongside Olivia Rodrigo and he became the subject of hot gossip after Olivia’s song Drivers License went hugely viral on TikTok and stormed the charts internationally. Joshua Bassett and Olivia Rodrigo were rumored to be dating but reportedly broke up after Olivia posted a picture wearing a t-shirt that said “dump him” after Joshua was spotted on a date with Sabrina Carpenter. This sparked an apparent love-triangle feud that snowballed when Olivia released her debut single Drivers License with the lyrics seemingly tell her side of the story. In the first verse, she says, “And you’re probably with that blonde girl who always made me doubt.” Sabrina released her single, ‘Skin,’ about a month later, and it appears she referred to that lyric. “Maybe we could’ve been friends if I met you in another life.

Then, to make matters worse, Joshua was tricked into picking between the songs during a recent interview with PopBuzz. He chose ‘Drivers License,’ which made some fans happy, but — of course — left others furious. Joshua Bassett comes out Although Joshua has attempted to diffuse the situation in interviews since, a new piece of information has fans in a frenzy. In an interview with Clevver News, Joshua answered a question sent in by a fan asking when he might be collaborating with Harry Styles. (Topic starts at 0:52) “He’s just cool, who doesn’t think Harry Styles is cool?” Joshua said. “Also he’s hot you know? He’s very charming too. He’s lots of things. This is also my coming out video I guess.” Fans react Reactions to the video blew up on Twitter with one person writing: “everything I’ve learned about the Joshua Bassett/Olivia Rodrigo/Sabrina Carpenter drama has been against my will but I’ve got to admit Joshua casually coming out is one hell of a plot twist and I’m living for it.” everything I’ve learned about the Joshua Bassett/ Olivia Rodrigo/ Sabrina Carpenter drama has been against my will BUT I’ve got to admit Joshua casually coming out is one hell of a plot twist and I’m living for it… pic.twitter.com/M8or4UvOgp — 🐝 (@KarolinaVega) May 10, 2021 Another user added: “Joshua Bassett really got Olivia and Sabrina metaphoring him to death and he wants Harry Styles.” joshua bassett really got olivia and sabrina metaphoring him to death and he wants harry styles 😭😭 https://t.co/OwB4TgQhFS — victøria h (@filmforvictoria) May 10, 2021 Several others praised Joshua for coming out so casually without making a big deal of it.

Joshua Bassett forced to pick between Olivia Rodrigo or Sabrina Carpenter’s songs Instagram: Olivia Rodrigo/ Joshua Bassett/ Sabrina CarpenterDisney star Joshua Bassett was put on the spot in an awkward viral interview in which he was forced to choose between Olivia Rodrigo’s song ‘Drivers License’ and Sabrina Carpenter’s song ‘Skin.’ ‘Driver’s License’ became an overnight sensation and broke numerous streaming records in January, and while the song itself is a heartwrenching breakup anthem, many believe it also touches on real events from Olivia Rodrigo‘s life. Joshua Bassett is very strongly rumored to be the subject of the song by Olivia Rodrigo, who played his love interest on High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. Fans theorized that it referenced a possible break up between the two in real life. Many fans also believed that the “blonde girl” referred to in the song was Sabrina Carpenter, a former Disney star who had recently gotten close to Joshua Bassett. Sabrina’s own song titled ‘Skin,’ released shortly after, had lyrics that seemed to indicate that it was a response. Sabrina sings, “maybe you didn’t mean it, maybe “blonde” was the only rhyme,” in a potential reference to the iconic “you’re probably with that blonde girl,” line from ‘Drivers License’. However, Sabrina has since denied that this was directed at Olivia. Joshua briefly addressed the situation for the first time on TikTok in a reaction to a sketch on Saturday Night Live in which they celebrated how viral the song became, while also briefly mentioning Joshua. In his TikTok, the actor simply looked directly at the camera appearing defeated and he added “dream come true?” in the description. Read More: KSI apologizes for using “transgender slurs” – However, it was only a matter of time before Joshua Bassett was required to speak further on the drama, and in an interview with PopBuzz on Monday, March 8 the unsuspecting actor was asked to choose between both songs. At first, the interviewer told Josh the interview would be in his hands – he must pick a category, and then he’d be asked a question based on that category. However, the songs were actually categories themselves, meaning he was unable to dodge the question. Joshua was clearly taken aback and awkwardly responded “man, you’re coming at it.” He took a long time to answer, appearing to almost say ‘Skin’ a few times before eventually settling on ‘Drivers License.’ To his relief, the next questions avoided the drama altogether. But for some, his agonizing over which song to pick was enough to cause a stir, with several people writing “as he should!” in the comments, or considering what the backlash might have been if he picked the other option. Despite this brief reaction, Joshua still hasn’t given any full details of his possible involvement and certainly doesn’t seem like he wants to share his real thoughts any time soon.

Joshua Bassett reacts after SNL sketch mentions ‘Drivers License’ drama TikTok: joshuabassett/ Instagram: Olivia RodrigoJoshua Bassett has addressed the drama surrounding the song ‘Driver’s License’ by Olivia Rodrigo for the very first time in a TikTok. ‘Driver’s License’ became an overnight sensation and literally broke records in January, and while the song itself is a heartbreaking break-up anthem, many believe it also touches on real events from Olivia Rodrigo‘s life. Fans theorized early on that the singer and star of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series was in fact referencing a possible break up with her co-star Joshua Bassett who also plays her love interest in the show. Many fans also believed that the “blonde girl” referred to in the song was Sabrina Carpenter, a former Disney star who had recently gotten close to Joshua Bassett. Soon after, Sabrina released her own song titled ‘Skin,’ and listeners noticed some lines in the song that may indicate that it’s a response to Olivia’s insanely popular track. Sabrina sings, “maybe you didn’t mean it, maybe “blonde” was the only rhyme,” in a potential reference to the iconic “you’re probably with that blonde girl,” line from Olivia’s own song. However, Sabrina has since denied that this was directed at Olivia. Read More: Who has the most posts on TikTok? – The drama surrounding the song, Olivia and Sabrina blew up and reached corners of the internet far beyond TikTok where it originally grew in popularity, and this week it even made its way onto Saturday Night Live. The SNL cast, alongside Bridgerton’s Regé-Jean Page who was hosting on Saturday evening, performed a sketch that celebrated just how viral the song became, with all the cast swaying and singing along to the icon “red lights, stop signs” bridge. Joshua reacted to having his name mentioned on the iconic show in a TikTok. He captions it, “FRIEND: dude you were on SNL last night!!!,” but as Saturday Night Live cast member, Mikey Day, says “My b**** ex, Gina, is Joshua Bassett” he looks directly at the camera with a look of defeat. In the description, he adds “dream come true?” This is the first time Joshua has made any reference to the drama, and safe to say reactions from TikTokers were mixed. Some were team Olivia and outraged at the actor, with one person writing “I love how with all this you still have the audacity to be on this app.” Other’s felt bad for him, with one person adding “omg I feel so bad for him y’all.” But mostly, commenters were in complete shock that he’d decided to make a video in the first place. One of the top comments with more than 60k likes read “I can’t breathe, did he actually just post this?” However, Joshua’s video neither confirms nor denies his involvement in the drama and offers no clarity on what really happened between the three Disney stars. Whether the real details will come out remains to be seen.

Josh Richards under fire for making fun of Cooper Noriega on BBFs podcast YouTube: BFFs: Dave Portnoy, Josh Richards & Bri ChickenfryJosh Richards is coming under fire after Treva Noriega, the mother of late TikTok star Cooper Noriega, hit out at a clip of Richards poking fun at Cooper’s crop top. Josh Richards is a prominent TikToker and co-host for the popular entertainment podcast ‘BFFs,’ alongside Barstool president Dave Portnoy and influencer Brianna Chickenfry. During a previous episode of the podcast, late TikToker Cooper Noriega appeared as a guest, in which he wore a cropped graphic tee that showed off his midriff. Noriega took a bit of ribbing from the BFFs hosts due to his attire, with Dave Portnoy notably saying, “You can’t be a normal person and wear what he’s wearing.” Noriega put on an oversized hoodie following these comments, causing some fans to speculate that the late influencer felt “bullied” by the hosts’ attitude toward his clothing. A clip from this segment of the podcast has gone viral online, set to sad music with a focus on Noriega’s reaction to Richards and Portnoy’s comments — but the TikToker’s family isn’t happy that the short video is making the rounds on social media. Cooper Noriega’s mother lashes out at Josh Richards over crop top comments Cooper’s mother, Treva Noreiga, spoke out against the clip in a comment on TikTok, where she also claimed that Richards should feel “ashamed” for what he said about her son’s clothing. “I hate this is still being shown,” Treva wrote. “This breaks me, and Josh should feel ashamed. Cooper loved him as a friend!” While clips from this broadcast are still available on the BFFs YouTube channel, the full episode has since been removed. Comments on a segment from the podcast are in full support of Noriega, with users lashing out at Richards and Portnoy for how they treated the show’s guest. “Josh and Dave literally grilled this man, [this] was messed up,” one commenter said. “They were so harsh and insensitive, and it really shows. The animosity Josh has built up inside is crazy. I hope everyone can forgive each other.” “This is absolutely disgusting and so very disrespectful,” another wrote. “Y’all just made fun of him for being himself and being confident and comfortable in his body and clothing. Absolutely. Disgusting. Disrespectful. Fly high Cooper, we love you so much.” Cooper Noriega passed away in June 2022 at the age of 19 due to “combined effects of alprazolam, fentanyl and lorazepam” and “recent clonazepam use,” according to authorities. Fans continue to show their love and support to Noriega and his family in the months following his death.

Joshua Bassett explains why he couldn’t respond to Olivia Rodrigo drama Instagram: oliviarodrigo / YouTube: Zach Sang ShowActor and singer Joshua Bassett has explained why he couldn’t fully respond to the drama that unfolded after Olivia Rodrigo released her hit song ‘Drivers License’ back in January 2021. Olivia Rodrigo has been one of the biggest rising stars of the past year. While she was initially known for starring in the series ‘High School Musical: The Musical: The Series,’ the release of her song ‘Drivers License’ marked the beginning of her career as an artist. The power ballad’s emotional lyrics had fans praising Rodrigo’s talent, but many were also fixated on figuring out the story behind the lyrics. Many theorized the song was about Olivia’s HSM co-star Joshua Bassett, which led to a flood of hate towards the actor. Bassett, who is a singer himself, released his song Crisis in early December, which appeared to allude to the drama that happened at the start of the year. Lyrics included lines such as: “And if you get to tell your truth, then so do I /And it’s cool if you want me to play the bad guy / But don’t you dare act like I didn’t love you / Don’t go thinkin’ that I didn’t hurt, too.” Now, in an interview with Zach Sang, Joshua has explained why he’s stayed quiet about the specifics of his side of the situation. “The hardest thing in this last year has just been biting my tongue, and sort of trying to protect the people that I love,” he explained. On the release of his new songs, Bassett added: “I cannot explain my side of the truth, or defend myself without having to expose other people , without having to then be like, ‘well, this is actually what happened and here’s why.’ “And so that was what was tough, is like, I don’t want to do the same thing that’s being done to me, that’s not my goal, I’m not trying to tit-for-tat. However, you cannot ignore this very vital part of the story and hope that everything goes your way, and pretend like there’s not this other reality to it.” After the release of his song earlier in December, the star asked fans to be respectful, and not send hate to others on his ‘behalf.’

Josh Richards teases Kardashians appearance after viral Dixie D’Amelio dinner date YouTube: ForbesTikTok star Josh Richards explained his viral dinner date with Dixie D’Amelio and her family, saying that they were all filming an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Dixie D’Amelio has been linked to fellow influencer Josh Richards for the past few weeks, with fans convinced that the two are secretly dating following her breakup from ex-man Noah Beck last year. Although neither party has addressed the romance rumors surrounding them, fans just can’t help pairing the two stars together as they continue to appear alongside each other at events like the Super Bowl and birthday parties. Most recently, Josh was spotted having dinner with Dixie D’Amelio and her parents, where some pretty big cameras were seen recording the proceedings. Fans went wild with speculation. Was Josh officially meeting the family as Dixie’s new boyfriend on an episode of The D’Amelio Show? Unfortunately, we still aren’t sure about that first part — but Josh did spill the beans as to one reason why he was there. According to the TikToker, he was attending the dinner to film an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, not The D’Amelio Show. Josh Richards to appear on KUWTK with Dixie D’Amelio “That was for Kim Kardashian’s show, I think,” he clarified in an episode of the BFFs Podcast. “That was for the Kardashians.” “We were all there,” he added. “The Kardashians were at that dinner. Er, Kim was. …it was a prison reform dinner. You know how Kim will like, get people out of jail?” (Topic begins at 35:19) Josh went on to clarify that he had been personally invited to the dinner by Fanatics founder Michael Rubin and Dixie, separately, and decided to attend. This wouldn’t be the first time the Kardashians have rubbed elbows with major influencers; Addison Rae notably struck up a close friendship with Kourtney Kardashian, who even appeared in her Netflix film, ‘He’s All That.’

Josh Richards teases Nessa Barrett romance in cozy Halloween snap Instagram: Josh RichardsIt looks like cuffing season is well underway for on-off TikTok couple Josh Richards and Nessa Barrett, as the former shared a series of close snaps of the two stars in each other’s arms ahead of a Halloween event. For the ex-couple, things have been awkward, to say the least, after they broke up under a cloud of speculation and cheating rumors. Not only was there speculation that Richards was using Tinder, but there were also rumors that Barrett had kissed Hype House’s Chase Hudson shortly after his own breakup with TikTok starlet Charli D’Amelio. However, in recent weeks, it seems like Barrett has made an effort to make amends with Richards, as she admitted earlier this month in an interview that her highly controversial kiss with Hudson was a “terrible mistake”. Since then, it seems that the two have let bygones be bygones, with Richards sharing a few pretty romantic snaps of the two all dressed up for Halloween. Coyly mentioning that Barrett had done his Halloween makeup, he uploaded a series of pictures of the two arm in arm, with one especially intimate photo showing him hugging her from behind. Naturally, this led to excited fans going into overdrive. While several rejoiced at the return of “Jessa”, one Instagram user joked in a comment that got over 8,000 likes: “So are y’all getting back together or what?” And it wasn’t just fans who had something to say about the snap. TikTok royalty Addison Rae mysteriously commented that she “love[s]” the photo, while Sway House’s Nick Bean said what everyone is thinking: “Y’all confuse me but it’s ok”. What happened between Josh Richards and Nessa Barrett? After months of speculation, Josh Richards and Nessa Barrett announced their relationship in October 2019. They met on TikTok (naturally) and posted a lot of adorable content together before calling it quits seven months later in June 2020. Although rumors around the time of their breakup suggested that Richards had cheated on Barrett, the two put up a united front in a YouTube video entitled ‘We Broke Up’, where they blamed the pressures of being in the public eye combined with their relationship moving too quickly for its eventual breakdown. “We were in a very serious relationship but we weren’t ready for as serious as it was,” Richards said at the time. “We realized that we needed to mature and we needed to grow as people. I personally have never seen two people love each other and care for each other as much as Josh and me. We just had a lot of growing to do still.” “I just really want to stress the fact that neither of us mistreated each other in the relationship,” Barrett added. However, it didn’t take long for the breakup to turn sour after Chase Hudson admitted to kissing Nessa Barrett shortly after his own breakup with Charli D’Amelio in July. Luckily, it seems like the two social media superstars have put all that drama behind them and, if nothing else, are at least close friends again.

Josh Richards slams Charli D’Amelio over Landon Barker cheating rumors YouTube: BFFs: Dave Portnoy, Josh Richards & Bri Chickenfry / Instagram: teatoktalkTikTok star Josh Richards levied some harsh criticism toward Charli D’Amelio after she was spotted getting cozy with a new guy in spite of her relationship with Landon Barker. Charli D’Amelio is TikTok’s second most-followed content creator, losing her throne to Khaby Lame after two years of reigning as the platform’s number one influencer in June. Boasting a fanbase of over 149 million fans on the app, it makes sense that viewers are interested in Charli’s love life… and it looks like her current relationship status is generating quite a bit of buzz. Charli started publicly dating Landon Barker, son of Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker, in July 2022. The two had just celebrated their 5-month anniversary when things started to go downhill in December. Fans began to panic after Charli was seen standing close to an unknown guy, now seemingly identified as Alex Novian, in several paparazzi photos, where the two were looking at her phone. Viewers seemed to think that these two were a little too close for comfort, but Charli hit back at the rumors with a pointed statement on popular Instagram tea page ‘TeaTokTalk‘: “I’m just standing next to someone, calm down.” However, the rumor mill sparked yet again when another photo surfaced, showing the mysterious guy wrapping his arm around Charli’s waist, who was leaning into him as the two sat down for a Snapchat pic. Fellow TikTok star Josh Richards expressed some heavy speculation toward Charli, calling their photos “pretty touchy” and saying he wouldn’t approve of it if he were in a relationship during a recent episode of the BFFs Podcast. Josh Richards criticizes Charli D’Amelio’s “touchy” photos with mystery guy “I did see a couple of other photos of them together and I was like, damn. That’s pretty touchy,” Richards said. “That’s an intimate touch,” co-host Brianna Chickenfry said. “That’s not just a friendly touch.” “If I saw that, and my girl just randomly has a picture of her and a dude like that, [and] I don’t know the dude or something, I’m a little weirded out,” Richards added. (Topic begins at 4:55) That’s not all; Landon has also unpinned all his TikToks with Charli, leading fans to believe that some trouble has arisen in their relationship as a result of Charli’s viral photoshoot. However, the two also recently attended an event together despite the ongoing drama. For now, neither party has yet to make any further comments on the situation, leaving fans wondering just what exactly is going on in TikTok’s most prominent influencer relationship.

Josh Richards slams influencers who use the Sway House for clout points YouTube: Josh RichardsJosh Richards is one of TikTok’s most popular content creators and an integral part of the Sway House — a group that he’s not too pleased is being used for clout by other influencers looking to get a leg up in the industry. [jwplayer ZXB9LNVP] Josh Richards, who boasts over 22 million followers on TikTok (in no small part due to showing off his abs in every other video), feels that some creators are taking advantage of the Sway House’s kindness to grow their own platforms and split. Richards spoke on the situation during an episode of Barstool Sports’ ‘BFFs’ podcast on October 13, claiming that he had at first wanted to help other creators get started by giving them a boost. “I knew how to pump out a million videos back to back,” he explained. “And I’d do five a day. And then I would see these other kids who were starting to blow up, and I was like, ‘Okay, if I give them a little bit of direction, they could be huge.’” https://www.instagram.com/p/CDMpS2RAYMv/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link However, co-host Dave Portnoy noted that sometimes these kinds of relationships can go south — a sentiment that Richards agreed with, sharing his own experiences with stars just trying to use the Sway House. “There’s so many people that come to us, and they’ll start filming at our house,” he continued. “I think we’ve gotten better at not letting this happen, but they would just use us for videos. They would sleep over, they would always be like, ‘Get in our videos!’” “The thing that sucks about that is that you don’t really know who’s out to get you anymore and then who’s just really trying to be there, be your homie and just vibe with you,” he added. “That really sucks.” Richards isn’t the first internet star to make such claims, by far; YouTuber Jake Paul has also infamously accused other creators of using Team 10 to blow up and subsequently “act like they don’t know nobody,” leading to quite a bit of drama in his own realm. While Richards’ statement has yet to be called out by other TikTokers, it’s not hard to believe that someone would try to piggyback off of someone else’s success in the age of social media fame.

Josh Richards says he’ll ‘never forget’ what Chase Hudson did Instagram: JoshRichards/YouTube: Chase Hudson[jwplayer ksH6zuKH]TikTok star Josh Richards has said that he has forgiven Chase Hudson for DM’ing Nessa Barrett while he was dating Charli D’Amelio, but that he’s not going to forget what Lil Huddy did to start their beef. Back in March, the TikTok scene was set ablaze when it came to light that Chase Hudson – who also goes by the name Lil Huddy – had apparently cheated on then-girlfriend Charli D’Amelio by trying to romance Nessa Barrett. Josh Richards, who had been dating Barrett at the time, dropped the Still Softish diss track about his pal Chase – marking the start of TikTok’s first major feud. Yet, it didn’t last all that long as the pair made up and “squashed” their beef only a few days later. However, while Josh may have forgiven Lil Huddy, he’s not going to forget what happened. The 18-year-old was quizzed about the status of his relationship with Hudson by Entertainment Tonight, as well as whether or not he would be welcome on the Triller app. “I’ve tried to take a note of I’ll forgive him but I’m not going to necessarily forget what he’s done,” Richards told ET Online. “There’s no point in keeping that around. Like, that’s why we didn’t do Still Softish part two – it’s just dragging it out.” The TikTok star added that he and Chase had a “couple conversations” after he released the diss track. “They were great, they were fine. I think that both of us learned our lesson in it all and I mean, we’re growing up,” Josh continued. “We’re still going through that stage and I think we’re past that now and we’ve matured.” Josh further noted that Lil Huddy, should he want to make the move, would be welcome on the Triller app that he has just become a part of. That invitation also extends to ex-girlfriend Nessa Barrett. Triller is app that aims to rival TikTok, and is particularly relevant now given threats for TikTok to be banned in the US. Richards confirmed that he and Nessa are not back together but they still “hang out” and are friends for at least the time being.

Josh Richards shuts down rumors that TikTok’s Sway House is finished Instagram: swaylaTikTok star Josh Richards has shut down rumors that his Sway House collective is finished, after word started to circulate online. Sway has been arguably one of the biggest collectives to come from TikTok, alongside the likes of the Hype House. With creators like Richards, Griffin Johnson and Bryce Hall, they’ve accumulated millions of followers and have become some of the biggest names on the platform. While they have been involved in some controversies throughout their time, the Sway boys have maintained a large, solid fanbase. That’s why, when rumors started to circulate that Sway might be over and done with, they’ve had to step out and tell their fans that all is still well and good, and they’re still very much together. The topic came up during an episode of Josh Richards’ BFFs podcast with Dave Portnoy, who asked “what the hell is going on with Sway house?” From there, Josh had to explain the rumors and what had really gone down. “Dude… I woke up and I got a FaceTime from Noah on the day that all these tweets were going out,” the TikToker said. “Noah’s like ‘Josh, is Sway falling apart or something?’ I had no idea what he was talking about, so I instantly go on my phone and start seeing all these tweets.” Adding that he has “no f**king clue what happened,” Josh clearly has no clue how these rumors came to be, but that Sway are losing followers on Instagram as a result — despite the fact that the collective is definitely not “dead,” as Portnoy put it. Topic starts at 2:42 Josh does say it could be attributed to some tweets posted by member Blake Gray, but if this is the case, he clearly feels fans have read too much into the situation. While the Sway house may not necessarily be just a group of creators living in a single house anymore, it appears the group still very much consider themselves together, so fans have nothing to worry about.

Josh Richards reveals he tried to date Charli D’Amelio before Dixie relationship Instagram: dixiedamelio, charlidamelio / YouTube: Past Your BedtimeTikTok star Josh Richards shocked the internet after revealing he attempted to date Charli D’Amelio before his infamous fling with her big sister, Dixie. In early 2023, rumors started spreading that claimed TikTok stars Josh Richards and Dixie D’Amelio were dating on the down-low following her highly-publicized breakup from ex-boyfriend Noah Beck. Dixie notably hosted Josh’s 21st birthday at the end of January. The two also attended the Super Bowl together alongside Dixie’s little sister, Charli, and her boyfriend, Landon Barker, on an apparent double date in February. However, Josh shut down these rumors in an interview with Entertainment Tonight in March, saying they were “just friends right now.” Despite his protests, Josh later admitted that he had “messed around” with Dixie in October… but it looks like he had his eye on the younger D’Amelio sister well before his relationship with Dixie got off the ground. Fans think Josh Richards admitted to pursuing Charli D’Amelio before Dixie romance In a January 22 episode of the Past Your Bedtime podcast, Richards admitted that Charli and Dixie’s mom, Heidi D’Amelio, isn’t a big fan of him. The reason why? Josh claims that it’s because he was ‘talking’ with Charli before moving on to her big sister. “The mother didn’t like me that much, ever,” he explained. “When I went and talked to Charli for a little bit, or like, then with Dixie.” (Topic begins at 35:12) This comment didn’t slip past eagle-eyed viewers, who were left completely shooketh that Josh had romantically pursued both D’Amelio sisters. “Tried talking to both sisters and then wonders why the mom doesn’t like him,” one fan wrote on Instagram. “Wait hold up, he tried to get with Charli and Dixie? JOSH PLEASE,” another exclaimed. “Some things are better left unsaid,” another commented. Still, others were left confused as to why Dixie even entertained him after he tried to get with her little sister. For now, it looks like Dixie is still dating hockey player Trevor Zegras, despite rumors that arose claiming they’d broken up due to potential cheating in December 2023.

Josh Richards reveals why he quit the Sway House reality show YouTube: BFFs PodcastTikTok star Josh Richards explained why he ended up leaving the Sway House reality show on the BFFs podcast, calling the show the “worst idea ever.” The Sway House is one of the biggest content houses on TikTok, and features some of the most popular stars on the app. Its members have embarked on plenty of projects together, and their most recent endeavor has been in the form of a reality show. ‘Sway Life’ follows the lives of these popular creators, giving fans a glimpse into what life is like for them behind the scenes of public drama. However, after a few weeks of filming Josh Richards and Griffin Johnson left the show. On the BFFs podcast with Dave Portnoy, Josh responded to rumors that he had been pulled from the show by manager Michael Gruen. “Just, first things first, I love how people say he ‘pulled’ us like we wouldn’t have a choice,” he said. “We chose not to do the show.” He went onto explain: “I think we were probably a part of it for five weeks, maybe like four weeks, and then we were like bro this is just wrecking so many deals. This is getting people texting us being like, ‘you guys look like idiots.’ It was just not good. It was the worst idea ever.” Read More: Who is Candice on TikTok? – However, while Josh and Griffin decided the show wasn’t for them, he clarified that “all the other boys wanted to keep doing it, they didn’t wanna stop the reality show,” and added that “for us it was just not worth it.” They also reacted to a clip from the show on the podcast, which showed Bryce Hall and Michael having a heated argument. But Josh claims that what appeared in the final cut of the show didn’t match what was originally filmed. Topic starts at 2:52 “That sh*t’s so f**king fake and cut together in certain ways,” he said. “Like that whole entire scene wasn’t even shot close to like that. They’re editing in stuff that happens like three hours later, putting it before. They’ll add the stuff that’s from two-day clip interview before and throw it into there. It’s kind of weird.” Despite the change of lineup for the reality show, all the stars involved still remain busy with various events and projects. Bryce Hall is set to fight Austin McBroom in the upcoming YouTubers vs TikTokers event on June 5, alongside a whole host of other influencers.

The internet was thrown into chaos after Mads Lewis uploaded a TikTok that implied Nessa Barrett had ‘taken’ boyfriend Jaden Hossler from her. The now-deleted video came as a shock to many fans, as well as Josh Richards, who had previously been in a relationship with Nessa. Josh initially said “it just doesn’t make sense, I don’t get where it’s coming from,” calling it “such a bizarre claim.” However, it quickly became apparent that there was more substance to the rumors after Nessa and Jaden were spotted hugging in public, and even got matching tattoos. View this post on Instagram On April 13 Josh tweeted that he wanted to “handle this offline” and that he “just needs time to think.” He also added that: “I’m doing ok and have no ill will towards anyone.” Personally, I am going to handle this offline. The last 3 weeks has been hard on me and I just need time to think. I appreciate all of my friends and supporters that have reached out to check in on me. It means more than you know. I’m doing ok and have no ill will towards anyone. — Josh (@JoshRichards) April 13, 2021 After Mads appeared on the Call Her Daddy podcast to tell her side of the story, Josh and the BFFs podcast team released an episode to talk about the crazy drama, and hear Josh’s thoughts on the situation. Speaking about Mads’ deleted TikTok, Josh said: “It didn’t have to be put to social media right away, that’s the one thing. It was like a, ‘let me just bring this to social media and sh*t on everyone’s lives.’” Read More: How to use the TikTok shapeshifting filter – He went on to say that, “we didn’t even have it figured out between us four, or like the friend group or whatever. So it’s like, how are we gonna start throwing sh*t on social media when we don’t even know what’s going on. That’s when the assumptions come out.” Topic starts at 3:55 Clarifying the timeline to viewers, the TikToker explained: “It was like, we broke up, then they became a thing. And it’s like, whatever. I’m moving on from it, they’re moving in their way, and for me, I just wish [them] the best. That’s it.” “I don’t want now it to become a game of, ‘let’s sh*t on each other, and let’s go out and have these teams and wars and hashtags,’ that’s not what I want.” It’s clear that Josh is ready to end the public drama and resolve things behind the scenes, so it may be that he doesn’t speak on the situation any further.

Josh Richards reveals Corinna Kopf messages to prove he turned down date Instagram: corinnakopf / BFFs PodcastAfter TikToker Josh Richards claimed on the BFFs podcast that he turned down dinner with Corinna Kopf, she claimed it was actually her that had to take a rain check. Now, Josh has posted a screenshot of their texts to prove who was really telling the truth. YouTuber Corinna Kopf stunned the internet in mid-June when she revealed that she’d made a little over a million dollars within just a 48 hour period on OnlyFans, with people flocking to the hugely popular influencer’s page in droves. BFFs hosts Dave Portnoy and Josh Richards were discussing the fact that the star made $165,000 on just one picture, when Josh suddenly revealed that he’d turned down the opportunity of getting dinner with Corinna. “You know how I know she’s got money?” Josh asked. “Cause she texted me and she was like, ‘yo, let’s go to dinner. Let me spend my OnlyFans money on you.’” .@JoshRichards turned down @CorinnaKopf for a business dinner. Unreal. watch this week’s ep now: https://t.co/OGpCTBVZrh pic.twitter.com/08ATlF4Nai — BFFs (@BFFsPod) June 25, 2021 However, the TikToker then went on to reveal: “It was for this Thursday, but I had a meeting on Thursday and the meeting actually got changed to go to the Suns game.” After BFFs posted the clip to their Twitter account, Corinna was quick to correct Josh’s version of events. “I actually rain-checked because I was out of town but we’ll go with that,” she wrote. i actually rain checked because i was out of town but we’ll go with that…. 😅😂 https://t.co/J25163SPKY — pouty girl (@CorinnaKopf) June 26, 2021 But Josh was keen to stick to his original story, and even posted a screenshot of texts he had exchanged with Corinna when they were trying to arrange to meet up. She said that she would be in LA on Thursday and asked if Josh was up for dinner, and just like his version of events, she added, “let me spend my OnlyFans money on you.” Josh then responded: “Alright sh*t, if you insist, but I got a dinner 7-9 Thursday.” The next day Corinna said: “Okay I lied, I’m going to Miami tomorrow.” It seems as though there have been some crossed wires with regard to who turned down who, but some fans hope that the pair will reschedule their dinner.

Josh Richards reacts to Thomas Petrou taking over the Hype House YouTube Channel Instagram: Josh Richards/Thomas PetrouHype House manager Thomas Petrou has taken over the content house’s former YouTube channel, causing a mixed reaction and even grabbing the attention of Josh Richards. Thomas Petrou – co-founder, and manager of the TikTok famous Hype House – has amassed over 8.1 million followers on TikTok with an added 1.8m subscribers on YouTube. The Hype House was a group of talented teens who collaborated together with the sole mission of driving views on each other’s TikTok pages, with included names like Charli and Dixie D’Amelio, Chase Hudson, Alex Waren, Addison Rae, and more. Recently, fans have noticed that the house’s YouTube channel name has changed, with all of its videos being completely wiped. Josh Richards reacts to Thomas Petrou taking over the Hype House’s YT On March 5, a video titled “SPENDING 24 HOURS IN A MOVING TRUCK” was uploaded to the Hype House’s YouTube channel, with one major feature confusing fans: the channel’s name was no longer “Hype House” but rather “Thomas Petrou,” making this his second page. The video showcased Petrou spending the night in a moving truck, earning the upload over 24,000 views. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJDQxKX015Q On March 9, Josh Richards went on the BFFs podcast to talk about the subject, and whether or not it was a smart play on Petrou’s part. “If it’s just you paying for the house, and it was a channel with over million-plus subscribers, why the f**k give that away?” he stated. (Timestamp 20:42 in the following video) Richards, who was once part of the Hype House’s biggest rival, Sway House, has developed a friendship with Petrou over the years, even recently having the former Hype House member on his podcast. While the original Hype House line-up isn’t the same as it is now, the collective now has its own show on Netflix.

TikTok stars Mads Lewis caused a stir on social media after fans discovered that she had unfollowed boyfriend Jaden Hossler, as well as deleting all her pictures with him, leading many to believe that the pair had broken up. People were further baffled after it was also revealed that she had unfollowed fellow TikToker Nessa Barrett, who is involved in an on-and-off relationship with Josh Richards. As rumors began to emerge, Mads stunned everyone by uploading a TikTok that featured clips of Jaden and Nessa together, along with the lyrics, “she took him faster than you could say sabotage.” The video also featured images relating to Nessa and Jaden’s song ‘La Di Die.’ View this post on Instagram She deleted the video shortly after, and commented on a TikTokRoom post about the video to respond to some of the backlash she was getting. “I don’t need to explain myself to anyone.

Topic starts at 52:53 When speaking about the TikTok, Josh said that, “what I’ve come to the conclusion of believing, is that Mads is tripping her f***ing d**k off. This is like, ‘I got my life affected so I’m gonna affect other peoples’ life.’ And it just doesn’t make sense, I don’t get where it’s coming from.” He also added that it’s “such a bizarre claim.” Nessa and Mads respond further On April 1, Mads commented further on the situation via Twitter, saying “it’s my fault for bringing all this drama to social media.

Just drop it like we did.” https://twitter.com/mads_lewis/status/1377716569707438087 In a separate tweet, Nessa wrote, “I’m so sorry but I love to see your true colors finally show.” In response, Mads posted a screenshot of her listening to the song ‘True Colors’ by Cyndi Lauper in an apparent reference to Nessa’s tweet. The situation has confused countless TikTok fans, and the stars involved as well, though whether this gets resolved behind the scenes remains to be seen.

Josh Richards believes he and Nessa Barrett will “never” get back together YouTube: Josh RichardsTikTok star Josh Richards has revealed on the BFFs podcast that he doesn’t believe he and ex-girlfriend Nessa Barrett will ever get back together, following their recent split. Fans were left stunned on April 1 when TikToker Mads Lewis uploaded a video that implied Nessa Barrett had ‘taken’ her boyfriend Jaden Hossler following their recent break-up. While Mads unfollowed both stars on social media, she later said, “I agree the video was immature, and I could have expressed myself in a different way, or even just kept it to myself.” Nessa said about the situation that she’s “not in a place to entertain those full of hatred and lies.” https://twitter.com/mads_lewis/status/1377716569707438087 Shortly after, Josh Richards reacted to the video on the BFFs podcast with Dave Portnoy, and he revealed that he and Nessa were actually “on a break,” and were not together. He also called Mads’ claims about Jaden and Nessa “bizarre.” The situations left both fans and the people involved confused, and since then many have been wondering where these creators stand with each other, and how the drama has affected their relationships.

I think that me and Ness are pretty much 100% for sure never gonna be together again. But like, we’re definitely friends. I would never not be there for her, if she called me.” He added that “I still reach out to her,” to check and see if she’s okay, and to congratulate her on her recent appearance on Jimmy Fallon with Jaden to perform their song ‘La Di Die.’ Josh also said that “I wouldn’t ever want us to lose our friendship.” This may have disappointed some fans who were hoping to see the pair back together at some point in the future, but it’s clear that the two stars still remain friends behind the scenes.

Josh Richards opens up on Barrett-Hossler split on BFFS podcast YouTube: BFFS podcastJosh Richard, the former partner of Nessa Barrett, has opened up on the BFFS podcast about her recent split with Jaden Hossler. The TikTok star looked back on their own ending, while poking some fun at himself. BFFS — the podcast between Josh Richards, Dave Portnoy and Brianna LaPaglia — re-trod old ground with the news of Jaden Hossler and Nessa Barrett’s breakup. The two TikTok stars have had a highly public entanglement and subsequent split drawing attention and criticism around the reality of the relationship. It started out with headlines after Nessa switched out one J for another, dropping Josh and picking up Jaden. The friendship that was brewing between the two brotherly TikTok stars was dashed. In the year since then, relationship drama has consumed many of the stars involved as they’ve attempted to build careers outside of TikTok.

The podcast hosts continued while doubting the idea the relationship had been fabricated. After an extensive discussion, Dave Portnoy sprinkled spice into the conversation throwing the idea of bringing Nessa Barrett onto the podcast as a guest at some point. Responding with a poker face on, Richards commented “I mean like maybe if we had to do it.” But then the facade came down. “I think there’s not a f**king chance in hell.”

Josh Richards responds to Nessa Barrett dating rumors after Jaden Hossler split YouTube: BFFs Podcast / Instagram: nessabarrettTikToker Josh Richards has responded to rumors that he could be getting back together with ex-girlfriend Nessa Barrett after she split with fellow TikToker and musician Jaden Hossler. Nessa Barrett and Jaden Hossler are two popular influencers and artists that were the center of controversy in 2021, after the pair broke things off with their former partners, Josh Richards and Mads Lewis, to be together. However, in late April of 2022, fans began to suspect that the pair were no longer together after they appeared to unfollow each other on Instagram. A few days later, Nessa and Jaden both posted a message to their Instagram stories confirming the split, writing: “Last month, we broke up to take time to focus on our own careers and mental health. Please don’t send hate or make assumptions. We would like to heal privately and hope you all can respect that. We love you all so much.” Josh Richards responds to rumors Immediately after the breakup, fans started speculating about what had gone on behind the scenes, and some even wondered whether Nessa would get back together with her previous ex, Josh Richards. On an episode of the BFFs podcast, Josh discussed his view on the situation. “Oh my god, I was so heartbroken at the time, but now I’m like, I’m very over it,” he said about the initial breakup drama from last year. Josh explained that recently he’s been hanging out with basketball player Mia Mastrov, but that they “haven’t really talked” about the Nessa & Jaden situation and that he doesn’t know whether he wants to date her. Amid the drama, fans noticed that Josh had liked a ‘Jessa’ edit, and when Josh’s co-hosts began to debate whether that means Josh and Nessa could reunite, he responded: “I don’t know how much that was like on purpose.” Topic starts at 21:00 “I don’t know if I liked two videos, did I? Like, I know there was the one that I remember I clicked ‘like,’ and then I was like “ah, that’s stupid, I gotta un-like it.” Asked why he did that, he responded: “I guess maybe just to like feed into it a little bit. It’s kind of like funny.” It’s not clear whether the two TikTokers will ever reunite, but it seems that fans are once again heavily invested in the drama now Nessa and Jaden’s split has reignited rumors.

Josh Richards & Mads Lewis finally clear up dating rumors after flirty TikToks Instagram: madslewis, joshrichards / TikTok: mads.yoTikTok stars Josh Richards and Mads Lewis have finally cleared up the dating rumors surrounding them after they posted a few unexpected and flirty videos to TikTok. Josh Richards and Mads Lewis have, once again, found themselves at the center of online dating speculation. These two TikTokers have a history of being in the limelight when it comes to dating drama; back in April 2021, the two were caught up in a social media whirlwind when Nessa Barrett and Jaden Hossler notably got together. The kerfuffle made quite an impression on fans, seeing as how Barrett was involved with Richards at the time… and that Hossler was one of Richards’ closest friends. Click here if TikTok fails to load. The fallout from the situation prompted outrage from fans across social media and seemed to hint at the end of the friendship between the parties involved. But now, some think Richards and Lewis are getting back at their exes. On March 22, the two posted several flirty TikToks that had fans wondering if they weren’t getting together. It also brought up the previous drama surrounding the Nessa/Jaden situation from last year. Josh Richards & Mads Lewis debunk dating rumors Despite all the rampant speculation, it looks like these two were just “clout farming,” as the two denied any romantic involvement in a recent YouTube vlog from Bryce Hall. Lewis claimed that “nothing” was happening between her and Josh and that they were just “making TikToks” together as a “clout grab.” Josh Richards gave a similar answer, saying the TikToks were “just clout farming.” (Topic begins at 0:45) Well, there you have it, folks, straight from the horse’s mouth. It looks like these two aren’t dating, after all… although we can’t say the same for YouTube star Logan Paul and actress Chloe Bennet.

Josh Richards & Mads Lewis shock TikTok with video after Nessa & Jaden drama Instagram: madslewis / YouTube: Josh RichardsFans are freaking out after Josh Richards and Mads Lewis uploaded a TikTok together, months after the drama between them and their exes Nessa Barrett and Jaden Hossler, with some people saying “this is what we were all waiting for.” The internet went crazy back in April after Mads Lewis uploaded a TikTok implying Jaden Hossler had left her for Nessa Barrett, and some very public drama ensued. Nessa and Jaden were quick to show that they were publicly dating, and they both received an enormous amount of backlash from people who didn’t agree with their actions, and who sided with Mads & Nessa’s ex Josh Richards. At the time, Josh called out Mads for being the one to take the drama so public, saying about her quickly-deleted TikTok: “We didn’t even have it figured out between us four, or like the friend group or whatever. So it’s like, how are we gonna start throwing sh*t on social media when we don’t even know what’s going on.” Things have definitely quietened down in the months since the drama began, but Josh and Mads have surprised everyone yet again by uploading a TikTok of them together. The July 2 video shows the pair sitting next to each other outside, with Mads eating something and laughing. With a dramatic theme song in the background, the pair simply sit and look at the camera and occasionally each other. Mads also uploaded a similar video of them lip-syncing to a popular TikTok sound. Although it was a simple video, it didn’t take long for fans to flood into the comments, shocked by the unexpected collaboration. “When I tell you my jaw dropped,” one wrote, with another saying, “been waiting for this one, turn it up.” One fan claimed that, “this is what we were all waiting for,” with others describing the video as “iconic.” There are also plenty of comments referring to Nessa and Jaden directly, with one viewer writing, “Nessa and Jaden punching the air right now.” It’s not clear what reaction the pair expected to get from the surprise TikTok, but with Josh’s video currently at over 1 million likes, it’s clear that it was a hit with fans.

Josh Richards has perfect response to Jackson Mahomes hitting on Nessa Barrett Instagram: Jackson Mahomes/ Instagram: Josh RichardsJosh Richards has posted a hilarious response after TikToker Jackson Mahomes tried to shoot his shot with Nessa Barrett. [jwplayer pNjHVqy4] Josh Richards and Nessa Barrett might not be in an official relationship right now, but all signs point to the two as a pretty solid pair, and they’re not exactly keeping it quiet. In the last couple of months, Josh has given plenty of indication that he’s loved up, despite some previous attempts at denial that no one is convinced by, especially after their history together. Josh and Nessa first got together in late 2019 when TikTok began to blow up and were together for nine months before breaking things off in August to “focus on ourselves.” But they stayed pretty close in the meantime, often appearing in vlogs together, making TikToks together, and posting images of them getting close. But when fans asked questions, they simply maintained they were best friends. However, Josh seemed to confirm that they are currently dating during his BFFs podcast with Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy. “That’s his girlfriend,” Portnoy said of the situation, to which Josh replied, “Yeah, that’s why she was on the show.” But under Portnoy’s TikTok clip of the conversation, Nessa wrote “Weird,” she wrote. “I didn’t even know myself?” causing even more confusion for fans of the couple. Read More: Why was Codemiko banned on Twitch? – The lack of clarity also means that some are trying to flirt with Nessa. After she posted a TikTok lipsyncing to Lucky by Lil Nemo, TikToker Jackson Mahomes, also known as the brother of NFL star quarterback Patrick Mahomes II, duetted the video lipsyncing the words “Looking at me, I know you wanna f*** me, I’ll give you this d*** if you lucky” and added the caption “let me take you on a date.” But Josh was not having it and promptly stitched the video with his own addition. He simply stood in front of the camera, and in silence, gestured towards Nessa sleeping on his bed, returned to look at the camera, and nodded while looking very proud of himself. Jackson snapped back in the comments “She looks bored,” but Josh was quick to hit back with “long night prolly tired.” The response leaves a pretty clear message to anyone trying to flirt with Nessa, and perhaps this will lead to confirmation that the pair are exclusive in 2021.

The TikTok star and Sway House member was most recently connected to influencer Mads Lewis after the two posted a few flirty TikToks together. While both parties firmly debunked any speculation that they were romantically involved (saying they were just “farming clout”), it seems like another possible fling has been added to Richards’ roster. Click here if TikTok fails to load. A post from notable celebrity gossip tea page ‘deuxmoi’ showed photos of Josh Richards hanging out with Loren Gray at a party in Las Vegas, where some fans thought the two were getting a bit too cozy for a “just friends” status. That’s not all — dating speculation ramped up further after they posted a TikTok together, parallel to Gray’s appearance on the BFFs podcast. Loren Gray, 19, was once the most-followed creator on TikTok before getting surpassed by Charli D’Amelio in 2020, and now focuses on her music career. Gray and Richards confronted the rumors during a recent episode of the BFFs podcast — but it doesn’t seem like anything was actually cleared up. Click here if TikTok fails to load. Josh Richards & Loren Gray react to dating rumors When asked if they had hooked up in Vegas, neither party had a clear answer for host and Barstool prez Dave Portnoy. “We were just hanging out,” Richards replied. “I don’t know anything about that,” Loren said, while an embarrassed Ricards laid his head in his hands.

Josh Richards finally addresses Dixie D’Amelio dating rumors Entertainment TonightTikTok star Josh Richards has finally addressed rumors from fans speculating that he’s secretly dating fellow influencer Dixie D’Amelio. Josh Richards and Dixie D’Amelio have been connected for a little over a month now. At first, speculation flared up after Dixie hosted the afterparty for Josh’s 21st birthday at the end of January. The rumors ramped up even further after they were spotted together at a Sports Illustrated party in February, and then again when they attended the Super Bowl alongside Charli D’Amelio and her boyfriend, Landon Barker. Despite rampant fan theories from fans pairing the two together, neither Dixie nor Josh had outright confirmed or denied whether or not they were dating… until now. Josh Richards responds to Dixie D’Amelio dating rumors In an interview with Entertainment Tonight at the Kid’s Choice Awards, Josh finally opened up about his relationship status with Dixie — and it looks like hopeful shippers will be disappointed. “No, we’re not dating,” Josh confirmed when asked about the subject. “We’re just friends right now.” That’s not all; Josh also claimed that he was single and looking to get into a relationship with the right girl. “I think I’m ready to get into a relationship soon, probably,” he answered. “It’s been a while.” When asked what kind of qualities he’s looking for in a gal, he answered that she “just needs to be a loving person, that’s all.” As previously reported, Josh isn’t the first guy Dixie’s been connected to since parting ways with ex-boyfriend Noah Beck late last year. Fans previously speculated that she was dating YouTuber David Dobrik, although it was later confirmed that the two were just joking around after going on a mock “date” together. For now, it’s looking like both Josh and Dixie are single pringles… but whether or not they remain that way is yet to be seen.

Josh Richards forced to address Dixie D’Amelio dating rumors after Bryce Hall video YouTube: Josh RichardsTikTok star Josh Richards is continuing to tip-toe around dating rumors between himself and Dixie D’Amelio after getting teased about the situation by bestie Bryce Hall. Prominent TikTok creator and music artist Dixie D’Amelio notably parted ways with ex-boyfriend Noah Beck in late 2022, whom she’d been dating for a little over two years. Since then, fans have been quick to pair her up with other popular creators like David Dobrik — but nothing official has been confirmed regarding Dixie’s current love life just yet. However, that isn’t stopping these fans from speculating that she’s secretly dating fellow influencer Josh Richards after the two were spotted at several gatherings together over the last few weeks. Josh Richards addresses Dixie D’Amelio dating rumors Although neither Dixie nor Josh have confirmed or directly denied that they’re in a relationship, Josh was put on the spot about the ordeal in a recent video after being called out by TikToker Bryce Hall in a humorous clip. Before it was published, though, Josh put out a lighthearted PSA on his Instagram stories, explaining that he had “no idea” what Bryce was about to do in the TikTok. “I have to start making these PSA videos before I film with Bryce just so people know that I go into these h**s clueless, alright?” he said. “This is my video saying this ain’t my fault, whatever is about to be posted. This ain’t my fault. I had nothing to do with it. I don’t even see it until it’s posted!” That’s not all; Josh uploaded a stitch with Bryce to TikTok where he joked that “this is why it’s hard to be friends with Bryce Hall.” “Dixie, what are you doing?” Bryce joked in the same clip. This isn’t the first time Josh has responded to the rumors surrounding him and Dixie, either; the TikToker was confronted about the situation by Dave Portnoy during an episode of the BFFS podcast, where he similarly dodged the question — although he did say that Dixie’s afterparty for his birthday was “good, though.” It’s still just speculation as to whether or not these two stars are secretly dating… but Dixie’s ex, Noah Beck, has been distancing himself from her on social media, sparking even more theories from fans as the rumors continue to rise.

Josh Richards explains his viral outing with Nessa Barrett Instagram: TikTokInsiders / YouTube: The Daily StardustEx-couple Nessa Barrett and Josh Richards were spotted together after Nessa’s recent split from Jaden Hossler — leading some fans to think a romance was being rekindled. Nessa Barrett and Josh Richards took over headlines last year due to a TikTok love quadrant that resulted in hurt feelings and accusations of cheating. Things kicked off after Nessa appeared in a music video with Jaden Hossler in 2021. At the time, Hossler was dating his on-again, off-again girlfriend Mads Lewis. Around this time, Hossler and Lewis unfollowed each other on social media, with Lewis making some damning Tweets that appeared to hint at infidelity on Hossler’s side. The drama ramped up even further when Hossler and Nessa Barrett went public with their relationship — a turn that also hurt TikToker Josh Richards, who had been dating Nessa at the time and has since claimed that Nessa cheated on him with Hossler. It appears that their relationship was not to last. A year later, both Hossler and Barrett published a statement to social media confirming their split (as well as debunking any claims of creating a “publicity stunt” for Barrett’s upcoming album). In the grisly aftermath of their breakup, something curious happened: Josh Richards was seen out on a walk with Nessa Barrett, instantly sparking speculation that the two could be potentially rekindling their past romance. Unfortunately for fans, this is not the case. Richards spoke out on the viral image of him and Barrett in an interview with paparazzi from the Daily Stardust, claiming that Barrett had wanted to talk with him to get “closure” on their breakup last year. View this post on Instagram Josh Richards shuts down Nessa Barrett dating rumors after viral photo “I was on a dog walk and she wanted to talk,” he said of the photo. “And so we went on the dog walk and talked. Kinda to get some closure and everything.” That’s not all; Richards all but confirmed that he and Barrett most likely won’t be getting back together, in spite of fan theories. “I feel like that’s a crazy thing to say,” he answered when asked about the possibility. “I don’t think so.” View this post on Instagram For now, it’s looking like things have finally been smoothed over for this ex-couple as hype builds for a possible appearance from Nessa Barrett on the BFFS podcast with hosts Josh Richards and Dave Portnoy.

Josh Richards explains why half of his Bryce Hall roast jokes were cut YouTube: BFFsTikToker Josh Richards has explained why 50% of his jokes were cut from the Bryce Hall Roast video, and revealed that he still has the original footage. In February, social media stars such as Tana Mongeau, Jeff Wittek, and Josh Richards all gathered to roast TikTok star Bryce Hall, and the video of the event was eventually uploaded in March. However, there was some controversy surrounding the event, after Jeff Wittek claimed that several of his jokes were going to be cut from the video, leading to him pulling his set entirely. But it looks like he wasn’t the only performer who had jokes cut. In an episode of the BFFs podcast, TikTok star Josh Richards explained why his whole set didn’t make it into the video. “I was kind of a little bit disappointed,” he said. “They cut out like 50% of my jokes. They just thought that some were too intense, so they didn’t wanna, like, get me canceled.” When asked what the jokes were, the influencer responded that “they were good,” and went on to reveal that he actually still has the footage of all the original jokes, hinting that he might go on to share it at some point. Josh went on to say that although he asked for his jokes to not be cut, they were still removed anyway. Topic starts at 2:00 It’s not yet clear whether he’ll actually release the jokes that didn’t make it into the final video, but several comments expressed interest in seeing the entirety of Josh’s set. Bryce himself actually reacted to some of the unseen footage over on his YouTube channel, as his videographer was there on the night to record everything — and the roasters certainly didn’t seem to be holding back.

Josh Richards demands Nessa Barrett and Jaden Hossler stop “petty drama” Instagram: nessabarrett / Instagram: joshrichardsJosh Richards has finally reached his breaking point with ex Nessa Barrett and her new partner Jaden Hossler constantly “roping” him into their “petty drama for clicks and views.” Social media stars Richards and Barrett have been through their ups and downs over the past year. While they officially called it quits in June 2020, the two had still been awkwardly linked through til December. With the relationship now finally off, the pair have distanced themselves with Richards confirming they’ll “never” get back together. Despite this, Barrett has continued to mention her ex while starting up a new romance with Hossler. Frustrated that he’s still a talking point in their new relationship, Richards lashed out across social media on April 28. “I’ve said this before and [I’m] saying it again, it’s well past time for them and others to stop roping me in for clicks and views.” The ludicrous conspiracies and false accusations against everyone involved need to stop. I’m tired of people spewing lies just to get a reaction from me. Don’t take my silence for weakness. I am blessed to have multiple businesses that I am responsible for and employees that… — Josh (@JoshRichards) April 29, 2021 Barrett’s latest song appears to be the straw that broke the camel’s back. While the track did little clear the air, it looped Richards back into the drama and teased that there’s more to “the truth” than people expect. Richards stressed that the situation has led to “ludicrous conspiracies and false accusations,” adding that they all “need to stop.” “I’m tired of people spewing lies just to get a reaction from me,” he said. Rather than focusing on the “high-school, petty drama” any longer, Richards has been focusing his efforts elsewhere. “It would be irresponsible of me not to focus on my amazing team that relies on me every day, that’s where my energy has been and that’s where I am going to keep it.” Read More: Addison Rae teases song about Bryce breakup – As a result, it’s clear the social media celeb wants nothing to do with Barrett’s new relationship.

Josh Richards dishes on Nessa Barrett drama: “Let’s all just move on” YouTube: Josh Richards / Instagram: Nessa BarrettThe drama surrounding social media stars Nessa Barrett and Josh Richards sent the entire TikTok fanbase into a tizzy — but it seems that Richards is ready for everyone to leave it behind. For those out of the loop, four of TikTok’s biggest creators were involved in a drama-infused love quadrant that kicked off after Nessa Barrett released a music video alongside Jaden Hossler. What’s important to note is that Nessa was seeing Josh Richards at the time, while Hossler was romantically involved with Mads Lewis. Once Nessa and Jaden’s music video released, though, the two seemed to put their partners in the past and got together, leaving Richards and Lewis understandably feeling a bit burnt. While plenty has come out in wake of the drama — including Mads Lewis claiming that Nessa Barrett had been shockingly rude to her before it all went down — Josh Richards is hoping to move on. In a paparazzi interview with Pap Galore on April 21, Richards appeared to be quite above the recent relationship scandal, and is looking to move forward with his own life. “Just like I keep ****ing saying on social media consistently, it’s just like, let’s all move on from it,” the influencer said. “You know what I’m saying? Everyone’s just trying to live their lives. Like you said, I’m doing a lot of stuff in the investing world and the production world and acting, and every world pretty much. I gotta focus on that. I can’t focus on the past.” (Topic begins at 2:35) That’s not all; when asked if Hossler had broken “bro code,” Richards gave a similar answer: “I’m just moving past it. They’re happy. Let them be happy, seriously. If they’re happy, let them be happy.” As for his current relationship with Barrett and Hossler, Richards claimed that they are all “cordial” with each other — although Barrett might not hold the same sentiments, as some fans think she has dirt on Richards after she liked an Instagram post saying as much. View this post on Instagram For now, it looks like things have settled down among the four TikTokers after a weeks-long breakup that shook up the entire influencer stratosphere in a way that was only rivaled by the love triangle between Chase Hudson, Charli D’Amelio and Nessa Barrett a year beforehand.

Josh Richards and Nessa Barrett reveal reason behind emotional breakup Instagram: Josh Richards/ Instagram: Nessa BarrettTikTok stars Nessa Barrett and Josh Richards have officially broken the news that they are no longer a couple and explained why in an emotional video. Josh Richards is a former member of the Sway House, leaving the collective alongside Jaden Hossler in early June after Jaden and Bryce Hall were arrested for drug offenses in Texas in May. The 18-year-old started dating fellow TikTok star Nessa Barrett back in October 2019, with the pair boasting a combined 27 million followers on the app. Nine months later though, the pair have confirmed that they are no longer together, releasing an emotional video that provides fans with an in-depth look at why they chose to end their relationship. The pair maintained that there is no bad blood between them. Josh said: “There comes a point in a relationship where you realize that maybe it isn’t the best for you guys to be together.” Nessa also said “We’re drifting apart so we can focus on ourselves” and that “neither of us ever mistreated each other.” Josh and Nessa explained that they still needed to grow as people, but not with each other and that Nessa needed some time to focus on her music career now she had moved to Los Angeles. They are, however, still staying friends. Nessa also explained that she had struggled with social media since they had been in a relationship, saying that she had “encountered a lot of hate” and that her mental health was “destroyed.” Josh, who recently left the Sway House with Jaden Hossler, said that they felt they had to make a video to talk about it themselves because otherwise, they feared that rumors would spread and that their fans would get the wrong idea. In the past few days, fans had already been speculating about the status of their relationship, especially after Nessa teased a video with ‘sad news’ on her Instagram story earlier in the week. In a live video on Thursday, June 18 a fan asked Nessa if she broke up with Josh she said “I did…not”, but with hesitation that many fans took as confirmation there was more to be said. Fans were devastated about the news. On Josh and Nessa’s video, one comment with more than 1000 likes said “They were the only TikTok couple I liked.” Other commenters lamented the number of TikTok couple break-ups in the last few months which include Chase Hudson and Charli D’Amelio, Cody Orlove and Zoe Laverne, and Isaak Presley and Kenzie Ziegler.

Josh Richards & Dave Portnoy react to Bryce Hall cheating drama: “It doesn’t make sense” YouTube: Josh Richards / Instagram: Bryce HallTikTok stars Bryce Hall and Addison Rae are currently embroiled in an alleged cheating scandal, with fans across the net theorizing that Hall cheated on his renegade-dancing girlfriend with an adult actress — but not everyone is convinced it’s true. The past week has been a whirlwind of drama for TikTok’s most popular couple. Bryce Hall and Addison Rae — who were rumored to be secretly dating for months before finally making it official — are now in an especially rocky spot in their relationship. The drama began in early March after a few Instagram accounts released photos of Hall and Addison dining at a restaurant together — except they weren’t sitting with each other. Instead, Hall seemed especially interested in Tana Mongeau, kicking off a slew of speculation regarding a potential tryst between the two. That’s not all; others claimed that Hall had met up with fellow influencer Saiviantha in Las Vegas, causing her to speak out and debunk the wild rumors in a pointed video. Still others are pointing to purported text messages from an adult film star, who — if the messages are to be believed — claimed she’d hooked up with Bryce in Vegas, releasing a slew of additional information about the event, in the process. With all the wild claims circulating the net, it comes as little surprise that other TikTokers have chimed in on the issue. In fact, Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy commented on the topic during his BFFs podcast with the Sway House’s Josh Richards, with both parties finding the scandal hard to believe. “If he’s gonna go do a **** star in Vegas, he’s been going around,” Richards hypothesized. “No way this is the first one. No way. It just doesn’t make sense.” “We’ve seen it on this podcast — girls will make **** up just to clout farm and get talked about, but this makes no sense. I don’t see how anyone could rationally believe this story,” Portnoy added. “I’m pretty good at my radar on what’s real and fake, and I’m going that’s ***ing fake.” Hall himself has denied any allegations of cheating prior to the BFFs podcast, while Addison has refused to discuss the topic, although she did ask for privacy during what is certainly an emotional time — not made any better by prying paparazzi and nosey fans.

Josh Peck responds to rumors of David Dobrik fall out and “bad blood’ between them YouTube: Josh PeckActor Josh Peck has responded to rumors that there’s “bad blood” between himself and David Dobrik, after claims he ‘cleared’ Dobrik from his Instagram page following the Vlog Squad controversy last year. In 2021, David Dobrik was at the center of controversy after allegations of bullying and sexual assault against members of the Vlog Squad, and the YouTuber ended up losing hundreds and thousands of subscribers along with several sponsors over the accusations. Amid the drama, Dobrik’s friend Josh Peck reportedly removed images of the YouTuber from his profile on Instagram, leading some to believe that the pair had fallen out. Almost a year later, Peck has now addressed the rumors that they are no longer friends in his appearance on an episode of the BFFs podcast. Host Dave Portnoy said to Josh: “It looks like you cleaned your Instagram of David Dobrik? Or maybe not, but, you don’t talk about him, is there anything to that? Bad blood? Or that’s not really even just true?” Josh responded: “That’s not true at all. I mean, I remember seeing that article came out and that was not true at all.” Topic starts at 52:35 “You know, we’re friends, and I’ve been lucky enough to be working a fair amount lately, and I have a kid, a three-year-old, so I haven’t been around for like a year or two, but no, that’s not true at all.” David returned to YouTube in June 2021 after a three-month break from the internet, and since then he has been uploading regularly on the platform for his 18 million subscribers. He has considered quitting YouTube entirely though. However, he’s recently been involved in drama with YouTuber Jeff Wittek, who accused Dobrik of planning to “frame” him with screenshots taken immediately after the excavator accident in which he was seriously injured.

Josh Richards confirms he “hooked up” with Dixie D’Amelio Instagram: dixiedamelio, joshrichardsTikTok star Josh Richards finally confirmed his relationship with Dixie D’Amelio, admitting that he “hooked up” with the eldest D’Amelio sister. Dixie D’Amelio is one of TikTok’s most-followed creators. The big sister of Charli D’Amelio, Dixie has somewhat transitioned from her status as an internet star to break into the music biz. As one of TikTok’s top stars, her relationship status is of great interest to her 56.9 million followers — so when she broke things off with long-term boyfriend Noah Beck, fans were curious to see what was next for her love life. It wasn’t long before rumors began circulating that she might have been involved with fellow TikTok star Josh Richards, a prominent creator and co-host of Barstool’s BFFs podcast. This pairing was an unexpected one, leading to mixed reactions from fans who speculated that Noah Beck wasn’t happy about the situation either, owing to his activity on social media at the time. Dixie and Josh were spotted hanging out together on several occasions, most notably sparking romance rumors after they attended the Super Bowl alongside Charli and Landon Barker for what appeared to be a double date. Josh, however, shot down these rumors in an interview, saying he and Dixie were “just friends.” But months later, it seems he’s changed his tune, as told in a recent episode of the BFFs podcast. Josh Richards all but confirms he “messed around” with Dixie D’Amelio Co-host Dave Portnoy brought up their rumored romance in an October 19 episode of the show, which came up during the latest season of The D’Amelio Show on Hulu. “This is before you two were kind of even messing around,” Bri asked. “This would be right during,” Josh said. “This was before February.” “What do you mean, they were [messing around]?” Portnoy asked. “Is this breaking news?” (Topic begins at 7:04) “I’m pretty sure that’s been said millions of times, no?” Josh retorted. The trio went back and forth for some time before coming to the conclusion that Josh had, at some point, confirmed that he and Dixie had gotten involved. “Alright so, headline: Josh and Bri confirm that Josh was hooking up with Dixie back around the Super Bowl,” Portnoy posed. “Okay,” Josh said. In the months since their now-confirmed fling, Dixie has seemingly started dating hockey player Trevor Zegras, who she’s been reportedly dating since July 2023.

Jorge Masvidal open to Jake Paul boxing match on one condition YouTube: IMPAULSIVE / Instagram: Jake PaulUFC fighter Jorge Masvidal is in the middle of a feud with YouTube boxer Jake Paul — and he says he’s not opposed to a possible boxing match with ‘The Problem Child’ if the stars align. Jake Paul is arguably the most famous influencer to step into the boxing ring. The younger Paul brother has made quite a name for himself in the sport, securing five victories (and four by knockout) against former pro athletes and fellow fighters. While he’s on the hunt for an opponent in his upcoming August match, Paul has gotten into a bit of beef with MMA star Jorge Masvidal, who notably got into a reported scuffle with former opponent Colby Covington in a street brawl. Paul slammed Masvidal on a number of occasions, most recently calling him a “bitch” for allegedly “ambushing Colby” outside after his previous loss to the fighter. “Couldn’t hurt him in the cage so try to blindside him?” Paul challenged. 2 facts of the day: #1 Masvidal is a bitch for ambushing Colby. Couldn’t hurt him in the cage so try to blindside him? #2 UFC always says it’s increased fighter pay 600% since 2005. Per Huddle Up, UFC revenue is up 1,700% since 05 and PROFITS up by 6,200% 🤯 10x fighter pay!!! — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) March 22, 2022 The time has come for Masvidal to make his reply, as he appeared on the most recent episode of older brother Logan Paul’s IMPAULSIVE podcast on April 19. When asked about the possibility of a bout with Jake, Masvidal seemed totally open to the idea — as long as his paper is correct, of course. View this post on Instagram Jorge Masvidal says he’s open to Jake Paul fight “Man, I love money,” Masvidal admitted. “I stated that earlier in you guys’ show. If it made me money — like, a ton of it — why the f**k not?” “No matter what, I feel like the chips are stacked on my side,” he added. “Because he just got into this combat [sport] however long he’s been doing it — five, six years. I’ve been doing this since I was a kid.” “Even though it’s not what I have my f**king PhD in, it’s still a form of combat that I have way more time than him doing and way more endurance. So of course the chips are on my side. Big money. I would bet on myself that I would win that fight.” (Topic begins at 1:09:07) Jake has yet to respond to Masvidal’s comments — but considering that he still hasn’t found an opponent for his summer bout, it’s no small wonder that fans are vying for a fight between these two stars.

Josh Peck deletes all trace of David Dobrik from his Instagram amid controversy Josh Peck/YouTubeActor Josh Peck has deleted all traces of David Dobrik off of his Instagram as the YouTube star continues to deal with the fallout from controversy over past videos. The drama surrounding YouTube star David Dobrik’s old videos and content shows no sign of slowing down, and now it seems like some of his acquaintances are starting to distance themselves from the embattled content creator. Basically, in the last few weeks Dobrik has come under fire for a host of allegations including sexual assault, bullying and harassment against him and his Vlog Squad based on content from a number of years ago. Dobrik and Peck, of Drake and Josh fame, have been friends for a while now, frequently seen hanging out and featuring in one another’s content on YouTube. However, as of April 3, all traces of the YouTuber seem to have vanished from Peck’s Instagram page. According to YouTuber Def Noodles, Peck apparently has scrubbed every mention and picture of Dobrik from his account going all the way back to 2019, when Dobrik won a Nickelodeon’s Kid Choice Award. It’s not known exactly when all of the content was deleted either, but it seems to have been very thorough, with no trace of the YouTuber to be found in his images whatsoever. Peck hasn’t said anything or put out a statement on Dobrik’s current situation, and based on what’s happened to his Instagram page now, it seems he could be trying to distance himself, at least publicly, from the whole situation. https://twitter.com/defnoodles/status/1378363965957234695?s=20 It appears pretty unlikely that Peck will make any kind of comment on the situation, either. While the two might still remain friends, it’s obvious from the Instagram scrubbing that the actor is trying to stay at arm’s length from the current controversy. To be clear, the Drake and Josh star wasn’t involved at all with the Vlog Squad content Dobrik is currently being “cancelled” for, but in today’s social media-fueled world, even a loose association can get you looped in on the outrage. As for Dobrik, he’s definitely experiencing a low point in his career, but some like fellow content creator PewDiePie predict that a comeback might not be entirely out of the question sometime down the road. The way things look right now though, when, or even if, that will be possible remains unknown.

Jorge Masvidal explains why Jake Paul ‘isn’t ready’ to fight him UFC fighter Jorge Masvidal has discussed a possible fight with Jake Paul, who he claims isn’t ready for the heat. After losing to the hands of Tommy Fury on February 27, just about everybody is wondering what’s in store next for Jake Paul. While he’s still yet to go to blows with his rival KSI, it’s no secret the younger Paul brother is looking for a few more bouts under his belt before the big fight. The YouTube star has eyed up bouts with some of the best fighters in the world, including the likes of Conor McGregor, and even Floyd Mayweather — who he recently had a heated encounter with. MMA fighter Jorge Masvidal is among those who Jake has looked to get in the ring — even going as far to say he’d knock out the UFC star. But, according to Masvidal, Jake isn’t ready yet. Jorge Masvidal discusses potential Jake Paul bout Appearing as a special guest on The DAZN Boxing Show, UFC star Jorge Masvidal discussed a potential fight with the YouTuber. However, with 50 pro fights under his belt, the 38-year-old MMA fighter believes Jake isn’t ready to face him: “Jake Paul wouldn’t be ready for that heat,” Misvidal said. “I’m throwing with bad intentions and I’m a pro with 50 fights. I’m not gonna get tired throwing heat and I’m there to take your head off. You’re gonna have to do some really evasive things in that ring to get away from me. Jake hasn’t hit that stride yet.” In March 2022, Jake was accused of dodging UFC fight offer from Jorge, with the latter also claiming that the YouTuber made a “horrible” offer for a boxing match. Currently, Misvidal is gearing up to take on Gilbert Burns at UFC 287, whereas Jake looks for redemption as a rematch with Tommy Fury looks to be on the cards. However, it would be interesting to see the two touch gloves in the ring, or the octagon.

Jorge Masvidal claims Jake Paul “wouldn’t be able to walk” if they fought Instagram: Jorge Masvidal / Jake PaulUFC superstar Jorge Masvidal insists Jake Paul “wouldn’t be able to talk” if they fought, claiming he’d “slam him through concrete” and make him “invalid” for the rest of his life. Masvidal and Jake started off as comrades in the lead-up to Jake’s fight against Ben Askren in April 2021. However, their relationship soured months later in August when Masvidal predicted Tyron Woodley would knock Jake out. The two of them have been linked to a fight ever since. Jake even pitched the idea to UFC President Dana White. It didn’t eventuate, though, with White telling Jake to fight Anderson Silva instead. The bad blood between them hasn’t gone away. Masvidal spoke about it with Ariel Helwani during an episode of The MMA Hour. He claimed that although fighting Jake isn’t in his plans, it could happen down the track. “Right now, where I’m at in my career, I’m going to fight the world’s best fighters in the world. We can both agree that they’re in the f**king UFC,” said Masvidal. “Those other options will always be there. But right now, while I’m in my prime, I have to do things that people in their prime do, and that’s fight the world’s best. “[Jake Paul] is not in that conversation, or ever will be.” Masvidal admitted he’d be open to fighting him in the future, though. “When I am done beating up world-class fighters, this bum will still be around. I’m going to collect a quick paycheck for hitting him so f**king hard in front of the whole world.” However, he believes the gap between them is insurmountable. “I can always pick this little kid up and slam him through the concrete so hard that he will be invalid for the rest of his life. He wouldn’t be able to walk.” A fight between Masvidal and Paul might not happen anytime soon though. Although it hasn’t been made official yet, Jake’s next opponent is reportedly set to be Tommy Fury. Read More: Will Jake & Logan Paul move to MMA? – There are plenty of other rumors floating around, too. Jake has been linked to a fight against Floyd Mayweather, Conor McGregor, and more. Masvidal is another candidate to add to the list. However, it’s a fight that fans would love to see.

And it didn’t take long for the drama to follow. Garay, the former partner of fellow internet personality Benji Krol, posted his first video on the platform since August yesterday. Lip syncing to the lyrics “I want to ruin your friendship, we should be lovers instead”, the video shifts between two different costumes. When news concerning allegations involving Jorge and a minor broke, his TikTok following stood at 4.6 million. He now has 4 million followers exactly, meaning he has lost over half a million followers since these accusations came to light. Along with the TikTok, Garay also uploaded a post to Instagram, captioning it as follows: “Today I felt better enough to start posting again. For everyone who follows me and knows me, I promise that I’ve always tried to be the best and I can promise that hasn’t changed. I will always try to act my best and make it better for everyone.

I never tried to take advantage of him in any way, so by definition it wasn’t.” Read More: Twitch bans accusations of “sexual favours” – As another fan called him out on TikTok, saying: “Sir, you groomed a minor”, Jorge asserted that he is “not a groomer and not a p***ophile”. “I did wrong stuff and apologized to who I had to,” Garay commented.

Jonathan Majors arrested on suspicion of assaulting woman in NYC United ArtistsMarvel star Jonathan Majors has been arrested in New York City for allegedly harassing and assaulting a woman after they got into an argument, according to New York police. Police were called to a Chelsea apartment at 11 in the morning, where they determined that Majors had been involved in a “domestic dispute” with a 30-year-old woman. The woman told the officers that she had been assaulted, and was immediately taken to a nearby hospital to treat minor injuries to her neck and head. Police said that Majors was taken into custody “without incident,” but has since been released. A representative for Majors said, “He has done nothing wrong. We look forward to clearing his name and clearing this up.” Majors recently starred in Antman and the Wasp: Quantamania, where he played the multi-dimensional villain Kang. He was widely anticipated as the next “Big Bad” of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, having appeared as the same character in the Loki show on Disney+. He was also rumored to appear in Loki’s second season, which drops in 2023.

JonZherka claims second Twitch ban was for “getting too edgy” Jon Zherka/TwitterTwitch streamer Jon Zherka has been banned on the platform for two weeks, with the content creator blaming it on the notion his content is becoming “too edgy.” Across Twitch, content creators who do not abide by the streaming platform’s guidelines get met with day-long, week-long, month-long, and – in extreme cases – permanent bans. These punishments are thrown out when content is inappropriate in a variety of ways. Content creator JonZherka was recently banned on Twitch, with the streamer revealing in a new Twitter post that he was hit with a 14 day suspension. And while the platform us yet to confirm what it was that got Zherka banned, as Twitch often refused to provide crystal clear explanations, he believes that it was “for getting too edgy and also aiding in the ban evasion of Gross gore.” Adding at the end of his Twitter post that “attempts at comedy keep failing” and pairing these words with an image of Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker. JonZherka banned on Twitch for the second time This isn’t the first time that Zherka has been banned on Twitch, however. Back in March 2021, he was hit with a month-long suspension on the platform. After the ban was lifted, he explained that “the reason I was banned was because I clicked a photo of a girl in a bikini on stream for too long,” he said. “I thought this would be harmless because girls literally blow up swimming pools in their living rooms and pose sexually/bounce on a floatie for millions of dollars on Twitch.” In a follow-up tweet, Zherka also added that “my chat was respectful and these pool streamers have chats that are so insane that I’m shocked they get away with it.” For all the latest entertainment news and updates, be sure to check out Dexerto’s full coverage here.

Jonah Hill’s ex Sarah Brady placed in mental health facility after abuse allegations Jonah Hill’s ex-girlfriend Sarah Brady was recently involuntarily placed in a mental health facility after her abuse allegations against Hill. About a month ago, professional surfer Sarah Brady aired out her dirty laundry with her ex-boyfriend Jonah Hill. Along with advice to other women, Brady shared text messages between her and Hill on social media, showing the actor degrading her verbally. Now, Brady has revealed that she was involuntarily sent to a mental health facility where she was taken advantage of and injected with drugs she never approved of. Sarah Brady says she was treated like a “street dog” by medics Brady and Hill dated briefly between 2021 and 2022. Though they broke up without a public announcement of a reason, Brady’s emotional abuse allegations against Hill have given fans reason to believe that’s why they ended things. At the time of their breakup, Brady shared text messages between her and Hill with him asking her to take down certain pictures on Instagram as well as cut friendships off and only act according to how he saw fit. She then urged females to make an “exit plan,” saying on her Instagram story, “This is a warning to all girls. If your partner is talking to you like this, make an exit plan. Love y’all! Call me if you need an ear.” Now, about a month later, Brady has revealed that she was involuntarily placed in a mental health facility where she was injected with unknown drugs and held against her will. Brady took to social media on Monday to describe one of many hospital holds that she’s had, saying that the Hawaii Queen’s Health System strapped her down and shoved a mask in her mouth while covering her face with “mesh s—t” before laughing at her. She also stated that she was treated like a “street dog” while placed on the most “violent” mental health hold that she has ever experienced, as she’s been involuntarily admitted about a handful of times. Brady also shared that medics at the hospital refused to give her water, saying, “I asked for water. They did not give me any. They dragged me by my arms and strapped me down on a gurney WITHOUT MY CONSENT.” Brady continued to explain her experience, saying, “This is not my first experience with involuntary hospitalization without due cause, or without a clear determination that I was a threat to the safety of myself or others, which is the legal definition requiring to involuntarily hospitalize someone.” Though Hill has not commented on his exes’ hospital experience, Brady is nonetheless out of her mental health hold. Though she left with bruises on her body, she is recovering after sharing her experience on social media earlier this week.

Jonah Hill’s lawyer claims “complete fabrication” in light of new “predatory” accusations Paramount PicturesAlexa Nikolas has spoken up against Jonah Hill and his allegedly “predatory behavior”, but Hill’s lawyer claims the events she described “never happened”. Following Jonah Hill’s ex-girlfriend Sarah Brady accusing the actor of being “emotionally abusive” and a “misogynist narcissist”, further allegations have since arisen. Alexa Nikolas, former child star of Zoey 101, recounted an alleged incident on Twitter stating that Hill “slammed me to the door and shoved his tongue down my throat” when she was 16. Now, Hill’s lawyer, Marty Singer, has spoken up, claiming Nikolas’ accusations are a “complete fabrication”. On July 12, Nikolas claimed she was invited to a party at Justin Long’s house when she was a minor. Once there, Hill apparently took an interest in her, swooping in when she asked for a cigarette. Nikolas alleges that the assault took place after the two went outside to his car, with Nikolas stating “I was so appalled I pushed him off of me and ran inside.” But Singer, who previously represented Bill Cosby, called the former child actor a “demonstrably unreliable” source following an inquiry by Deadline. Singer also called Nikolas “a serial accuser who has made assorted accusations against multiple men in the entertainment industry.” Nikolas has since clapped back on Twitter, defending her accusations against the actor. “Yes. I’m a [multiple-time] survivor and I’m sadly not the only one,” she said. “Sexist individuals will not scare me nor shame me out of not only confronting my traumas but also sharing them in the hopes to put an end to this painful cycle throughout time.” We’ll be sure to keep you updated as the story progressed.

Jon Zherka says Twitch banned him for opening bikini picture on stream Twitch: JonZherkaOn March 20, Twitch streamer Jon Zherka was hit with a sudden ban on the platform, and his channel still hasn’t been restored over a month later. Now, he’s revealed the reason why, and he’s not happy about it. While Zherka was never exactly the top streamer on the platform, not reaching the heights of the likes of Tyler ‘Ninja’ Blevins or Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel, Zherka has long been a mainstay on Twitch. While his content regularly toed the line, with Tinder streams and the like, he clearly doesn’t think that line was crossed. Now, he’s hit out at the platform and questioned their consistency on bans, upset with how some other streamers “get away with” their content. Just got banned and I am not sure why. I want to thank you guys for supporting me into the freedom I would only ever dream about. Don’t worry too much because unlike everyone else, I am invincible. Sweet dreams my minions ❤️ pic.twitter.com/qJ4AMioCsj— Zherka (@ZherkaOfficial) March 20, 2021 Just over a month following his ban, Jon addressed the issue in some tweets posted on April 22, explaining what happened and his side of the story. “The reason I was banned was because I clicked a photo of a girl in a bikini on stream for too long,” he said. “I thought this would be harmless because girls literally blow up swimming pools in their living rooms and pose sexually/bounce on a floatie for millions of dollars on Twitch.” In a follow-up tweet, Zherka added that “my chat was respectful and these pool streamers have chats that are so insane that I’m shocked they get away with it.” The biggest difference is that my chat was respectful and these pool streamers have chats that are so insane that im shocked they get away with it. — Zherka (@ZherkaOfficial) April 21, 2021 Zherka is clearly upset at what he deems to be an injustice, but it’s impossible to tell yet if or when Twitch are likely to review their ban of his channel. While some fans have urged him to try streaming on YouTube and grow his audience there instead, he hasn’t suggested that will be happening any time soon. There has definitely been a lot of discourse around the ongoing “hot tub meta” on Twitch, and streamers and fans alike are very much split on what should and shouldn’t be allowed on the platform. It seems now we know which side Zherka is on.

Jonah Hill accused of “predatory behavior” by Zoey 101’s Alexa Nikolas when she was a minor Instagram: @matchthesource YouTube: @GQVideosNickelodeon actress and advocate Alexa Nikolas just came forward with her own accusations about Jonah Hill. 21 Jump Street’s Jonah Hill didn’t have any controversy about him in entire his career so far – that is, until a few days ago. His ex-girlfriend Sarah Brady recently called the actor out for his behavior towards her, and shared several screenshots of their conversations on social media. Before he could issue a public apology to clear up the situation, someone else just came forward with accusations of their own. What did Zoey 101’s Alexa Nikolas accuse Jonah Hill of doing? Alexa Nikolas is known for her role as Nicole Bristow in Nickelodeon’s Zoey 101. On June 8, she took to Twitter to share her own experience being around Jonah Hill years ago. The actress accused him of “predatory behavior” and forcing himself on her when he was 24 and she was only 16. Alexa went on to say that she saw Sarah Brady’s post and thought it was “admirable” for her to come forward. She wrote, “This type of predatory behavior was hyper normalized when I was a kid. I’m proud to see women standing up to abusive men now. Bad ASS!” Not only is she an actress, but she is known for advocating for young child actors, based on her negative experience working with Dan Schneider and her Zoey 101 costars. Jonah has still not publicly responded to the accusations. In fact, he is under fire for selling merch that says ‘Complete Unrelenting Control’. People are speculating that it is relatable to the claims that he is manipulating. To stay updated on all of the latest Entertainment news and drama, make sure to check our page here.

Jon Zherka finally unbanned from Twitch after controversial 3-month suspension YouTube: Jon ZherkaPopular Twitch streamer Jon Zherka, best known for his IRL streams, has finally been unbanned from the platform, over three months after being allegedly banned for showing a woman in a bikini on stream. Jon Zherka is one of Twitch’s most-followed IRL streamers, a popular name in the Just Chatting category since he started his channel in 2019. At the time of writing, he has over 160k followers and saw huge growth towards the end of 2020. But Zherka was banned on March 20 in mysterious circumstances, and revealed a month later that the ban was because he had “clicked a photo of a girl in a bikini on stream for too long”. He then called out Twitch over ‘hypocrisy’ amid the so-called ‘hot tub meta’. And after hot tub streamer Amouranth was unbanned from Twitch after three days on the sidelines amid controversial ASMR practices, Zherka voiced his frustration at the platform once more. “How am I still banned…” he tweeted. Now, however, Zherka is back after three months in the wilderness, as his channel was reactivated on June 26. Zherka had produced some content for his YouTube channel during his time out, but it was clear from the inconsistency of uploads that he was missing his Twitch stomping ground. He tweeted a week after his ban that his mental health had taken a turn for the worse. “Going from 15 hour days with my chat to being alone and at the bottom of my mental health is actually the deepest low I’ve ever felt,” he said. Going from 15 hour days with my chat to being alone and at the bottom of my mental health is actually the deepest low I’ve ever felt. I’m too depressed to cry and I always feel like puking. I haven’t been banned for a year and a half… I know people who get banned 6 times a year — Zherka (@ZherkaOfficial) March 30, 2021 While Zherka is yet to respond publicly to his unban, fans will hope to see him return to streaming as soon as possible. Zherka’s unban shows that Twitch doesn’t simply forget about long-banned streamers, but it feels increasingly unlikely by the day we’ll see Dr Disrespect return to the platform. It’s been exactly a year since he was permabanned, and the situation still remains shrouded in mystery.

Jon Zherka posts proof he was banned by Twitch for 3 months for no reason Jon Zherka/TwitterPopular Twitch streamer Jon Zherka has apparently posted proof that his three month suspension from the site was for no reason whatsoever, just a few days after being unbanned. Zherka finally had his account reinstated on June 26 after being mysteriously banned on March 20 earlier in 2021, and shortly after being locked out of the site he claimed it was for clicking on a picture of a girl in a bikini for too long. However, now an email from Twitch itself that Zherka posted to his Twitter account seems to prove that the three-month ban was for no reason other than a mistake by the streaming platform — something that seems to be becoming a common theme. “lol..” was all Zherka posted along with the screenshot of Twitch’s email explaining the reason he got banned for so long. “Your account was blocked due to a mistake on our part. I’ve gone ahead and reversed this suspension on your account, so you’re free to use our services once again,” the email from an unnamed Twitch employee read. “Apologies for any inconvenience or confusion this might have caused.” Despite having every right to be pissed about losing over 3 months of Twitch revenue and having to switch to YouTube, Zherka doesn’t seem too bitter or bent out of shape about the whole thing. “This is just for the record that I did not get banned cause people don’t believe me,” the IRL streamer replied, indicating he didn’t post the screenshot to call out Twitch for obviously dropping the ball. This is just for the record that I did not get banned cause people don’t believe me 👽 — Zherka (@ZherkaOfficial) June 29, 2021 While he was still in limbo, Zherka went to YouTube as many Twitch exiles, like Dr Disrespect, have done in the past. While he was still producing content it wasn’t as frequent as his banned channel, and it was clear Jon wasn’t feeling at home. Now that he’s officially back on Twitch though, the streamer and his fans can finally gather at his old channel once again. Hopefully, with no more mystery bans from the platform coming in the future, either.

JoJo Siwa’s ex-girlfriend Avery Cyrus explains love triangle drama with other influencers TikTok: JoJo Siwa, Avery CyrusTikToker Avery Cyrus has gone viral with a video describing her “toxic” relationship with an ex, which fans have figured out is JoJo Siwa, and the love triangle they ended up in. From best friends to girlfriends – JoJo Siwa and Avery Cyrus started off their relationship as close pals, but their connection blossomed into a romantic relationship shortly after. The former couple started off as friends making videos together for social media, giving fans a glimpse inside their soon-to-be relationship. It wasn’t until September 2022 that the pair made their relationship official via a TikTok video. In the clip, the twosome could be seen at Chuck E. Cheese posing for pictures in a photo booth, with one snap capturing a sweet smooch. However, Avery confirmed in December 2022 that the pair had split, noting in a TikTok comment that they were “better as friends.” JoJo has since accused Avery of using her for clout in videos. Avery has now taken to TikTok where she opened up about her previous relationship, which she labeled it as “toxic”. Jojo Siwa’s ex-girlfriend Avery Cyrus explains love triangle drama In a TikTok video, Avery revealed how one of her ex-girlfriends, which due to the events mentioned, fans are certain to be about JoJo, had broken up with her through a voice memo. She started the video by saying how the two of them had gone to a concert where they’d bumped into JoJo’s ex, Instagram star Kylie Prew and her girlfriend at the time, TikToker Rylin Utah. “Her ex is so into the conversation, and she’s like oh my god I heard she’s gonna play this song that’s on her smiley face album. “Me and her girlfriend are just sitting there like,” she said while sitting with her arms crossed and a slightly annoyed facial expression. The following day, Avery revealed that JoJo had said she wanted to reach out to her ex to tell her there were no bad blood between them and also showed Avery the text she was going to send before she sent it. However, Avery later figures out that Jojo actually sent more messages to her ex, which lead them to remenicent about the things they’d kept from their relationship and even calling each other their pet names. She confronts JoJo who said she would stop responding to the messages. Jojo breaks up with Avery through voice memo “Fast forward to three days later, she drops me off at the airport to go home and as soon as I walked through my front door, she sends me a voice memo breaking up with me. Through voice memo!” Avery revealed. “I was freaking distraught, I was not expecting it even a little bit. “The next morning on a plane to see my parents, and I get the whole ‘I messed up, I had a dream about you, it’s me not you.” Avery revealed that, although she wanted JoJo back, she was telling her to really think about what she wanted as she would not be able to handle the indecicivness. But even though JoJo showered her in gifts and love, something was off. After confronting Jojo once again after feeling like something was off, JoJo had asked them to just be friends to “take the preassure off” their relationship. “And then a couple days later, she gets caught hanging with her ex,” Avery said. She ended the video by saying that, although they’d spent a work trip together, they had ended it for good after that. It’s currently not known if either Avery or JoJo are dating anyone else.

JoJo Siwa sparks outrage after defending Colleen Ballinger amid grooming allegations YouTube: Colleen Vlogs, Howie Mandel Does Stuff ClipsYouTube star JoJo Siwa has sparked outrage online after defending controversial creator Colleen Ballinger amid accusations that Ballinger allegedly groomed young fans. JoJo Siwa is a bonafide internet icon who rose to fame in the late 2010s after first appearing on the reality TV show Dance Moms. Siwa has garnered a huge audience thanks to her bubbly personality and love for all things sparkly, glittery, and rainbow. In the years since going viral, Siwa has released her own music, gone on tour, and also came out as part of the LGBTQ+ community in 2021. Siwa has cemented herself as an icon for young people all over the world — but now, the YouTuber is coming under fire for her latest comments about one of her colleagues. JoJo Siwa speaks out on friendship with Miranda Sings On a September 12 episode of Howie Mandel’s podcast, Siwa opened up about her friendship with now-disgraced YouTuber Colleen Ballinger. The two have collaborated many times in the past and, according to Siwa, have known each other since she was just twelve years old. This fact sparked shock from listeners, given that Ballinger is currently under scrutiny for allegedly grooming several of her young fans. As a result of these allegations, Ballinger’s tour was stopped short, and the influencer hasn’t spoken out since releasing an apology video that was slammed by the internet over the summer. But Siwa went to bat for Ballinger, saying “the internet can take a lie and run so far with it, so far, to the point where you just can’t do anything about it.” “I know Colleen very, very, very well, and I think the work that Colleen has done for the internet is incredible,” she continued. “I think her creativity is incredible. Miranda Sings is a character, is a comedian. And I think that it’s very hard to be a character where people are also looking at you as a real human behind that character.” “She’s cool, you know? And the problem is, I think the internet was able to capitalize off of her cancellation, and they still are… and it’s not okay, because a lot of it is based off of lies. And it hurts me to see.” Since speaking out about the issue, Siwa has faced a wave of backlash from commenters angry that she stuck up for such a controversial figure. “So Jojo is saying children lied?” one commenter wrote. “Really? She’s now victim shaming.” “Colleen is a disgusting person and she doesn’t need you to defend her Jojo,” another said. “Do you think she really is innocent and sitting in silence after making an a**out of herself waiting for you to defend her because what, you’re ‘friends?’ Embarrassing.” However, others are taking a gentler approach, with many commenters saying Jojo is “naive” and likely still attached to a longtime friend she made when she was just kid. Even the likes of YouTube star Trisha Paytas commented on the situation, saying that although Siwa “should have opted to not talk about it,” she “has respect for Jojo for navigating everything she’s been through.” “In no way am I placing blame on Jojo for these words she’s saying. I think in this particular case she feels an attachment, she feels a loyalty to Colleen,” Paytas said. Thus far, Siwa has yet to publicly speak out regarding the backlash she received after discussing Colleen — but we’ll make sure to keep you updated right here on Dexerto if she does.

JoJo Siwa stops concert to curse out booing attendee at NYC Pride show TikTok: emilyxinfinityJoJo Siwa stopped her NYC Pride performance at Trixie Mattel’s concert event to curse out an audience member who booed her. Former Dance Moms star JoJo Siwa has been turning heads since announcing her “not made for children era” in May, releasing music to celebrate her new “bad girl” persona. However, the switch hasn’t been popular with all of Siwa’s viewers, many of whom claim her first single ‘Karma’ featured the “worst” dance moves in history. Despite announcing on TikTok that she had heard fans’ critiques “loud and clear” and intended to switch things up for “her next move”, Siwa has continued to face backlash. Most recently, during her performance at Trixie Mattel’s Pride Disco event in New York City. After being booed by a member of the audience, Siwa stopped the concert to call out the crowd member responsible and curse them out. A now-viral clip posted on TikTok by user ‘emilyxinfinity‘ showed the incident go down, as Siwa stopped the concert and demanded to know “who the f***” had “booed” her. “Where the f*** did that come from? Which one of you” the singer interrogated, scanning the crowd as fans could be heard encouraging Siwa to “fight” and “beat them up”. When she wasn’t able to find the source of the booing, Siwa instead offered her middle fingers to the crowd and aimed some choice words at the unimpressed attendee: “Respectfully, f*** you.” Her backup dancers joined in, flipping off the crowd before Siwa changed her tone upon finding a bouquet of roses tossed on stage, calling the gesture “sweet”. She then pulled a single rose out from the bunch and stuck it in her hot shorts, before running excitedly across the stage and announcing: “F*** the booers, somebody just chucked a bra at me!” At another point in the performance, Siwa declared that “no one knew how to deal with the a*****es in the world” better than she did at the age of 12.

JoJo Siwa shares first photos with new girlfriend: “Happiest I’ve ever been” YouTube: It’s JoJo SiwaYouTube sensation JoJo Siwa has finally released photos of her girlfriend after revealing that her new beau had helped inspire her internet-breaking announcement last month. It’s safe to say that JoJo Siwa has officially taken over the internet. A former ‘Dance Moms’ star, the tow-headed youngster has made quite a name for herself on YouTube, even scoring her own line of hair bows and slime in partnership with Walmart. That’s not all; Siwa is also a renowned pop star, boasting a slew of original songs that are hailed for their positivity and upbeat messages. With her bedazzled, rainbow-infused style and explosive personality, it comes as little surprise that Siwa has managed to amass an incredible online following — but her popularity exploded on January 22, when Siwa came out to the entire internet. https://twitter.com/itsjojosiwa/status/1352719582977355777?s=20 That’s not all; Siwa also revealed that she’s got a girlfriend, as told during her interview with Jimmy Fallon on the Tonight Show. Read More: What happened to Sway House? – “It is true — I have the most amazing, wonderful, perfect, most beautiful girlfriend in the whole world,” Siwa said. “That’s not something I’m ashamed of.” (Topic begins at 1:30) Just a few days later, Siwa uploaded the first-ever photos of herself and her new boo to Instagram, revealing that they’d been “best friends” for over a year before making things official. “After being my best friend for over a year, January 8th 2021, I got to start calling this exceptional human my girlfriend,” Siwa wrote. “Since then I’ve been the happiest I have ever been! She seriously is the most loving, supportive, happiest, protective, and just the most beautiful perfect person in the world. And I get to call her mine! Happy one month to my girl! I love you more and more everyday!” View this post on Instagram Siwa’s pics with her bae show the two holding hands and even giving each other piggy backs at a theme park, as well as a short clip that shows them singing together in the car. It also seems that Siwa’s girlfriend has made a possible appearance in her latest YouTube video, although comments on the upload have been turned off. Thus far, Siwa has been met with an outpouring of support on all sides in wake of her big reveal, with fans and fellow creators alike ecstatic for her happiness.

JoJo Siwa shocks fans by taking on completely new look in viral TikTok JoJo Siwa, YouTubeYouTuber JoJo Siwa is known for her bright, colorful clothes, sequins and bows — but it looks like the internet star is trading in her classic look for a totally new style. JoJo Siwa is an icon for the younger generation, boasting over 11 million subscribers on YouTube alone. However, she’s not just an online entertainer; she was also a contestant on reality TV series Dance Moms, and even boasts a slew of original songs (as well as her very own brand of slime). What sets the YouTuber apart, though, is her radiant positivity and equally shining wardrobe, as she is often seen wearing a high ponytail with a bow, sequined jackets, and brightly colored shirts. While JoJo ‘s colorful attire has become a staple part of her image, it seems the 18-year-old content creator is making a big change to her image, as evidenced by a TikTok that went viral across social media on May 19. Siwa’s name was trending across Twitter due to the short video, which showed the YouTuber wiping a mirror wearing her classic, colorful getup. After swiping a paper towel across the mirror, Siwa effectively “wiped out” her classic look, taking down her hair to reveal long, blonde waves and trading in her bright clothes for a contrastingly darker Gucci graphic tee. It’s a huge change for the social media mogul, who has made her look a central part of her branding — but this isn’t the first time she’s “let her hair down,” having uploaded previous videos of herself in a similar outfit and style, before. Her latest TikTok could likewise herald a permanent transition in fashion for the star, as her video was uploaded on the eve of her 18th birthday, making the full transition to an adult. Whether or not this means she will completely change her branding going forward remains to be seen — but fans are showing support for Siwa on all sides in wake of a massive shift that has left everyone completely shook.

JoJo Siwa reveals she was swatted after coming out Unsplash, AJ Colores / YouTube, It’s JoJo SiwaYouTuber and former Dance Moms star JoJo Siwa came out on January 22 — but while the internet was busy celebrating her announcement, Siwa herself was dealing with a frightening swatting situation. [jwplayer h3XPfMqQ] JoJo Siwa is one of the biggest influencers among young people; boasting over 12 million subscribers on YouTube, Siwa has become a veritable icon for kids due to her bubbly personality, positive messages, high-energy pop songs, and rainbow-studded outfits. However, it wasn’t her style that took over the net on January 22 — instead, it was her official “coming out” announcement, which she had previously teased by uploading a TikTok of herself lip syncing to Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way.” JoJo confirmed what many fans had suspected by uploading a photo of herself wearing a shirt she’d been given by her cousin, which boasted lettering that read “Best. Gay. Cousin. Ever.” https://twitter.com/itsjojosiwa/status/1352719582977355777?s=20 Needless to say, the internet went wild with excitement over Siwa’s announcement — but it seems that the weekend went in an entirely different direction for Siwa, herself. According to the YouTuber, police had been called to her home in a classic case of “swatting” in wake of her big reveal, leading to a terrifying moment during what should have been a celebratory time for the singer. “Our house got swatted,” she explained during an Instagram Live stream. “We were at our house and all of the sudden, there were a whole bunch of police telling us to come outside the house. And we didn’t know why. …The police were saying that somebody had called and made a claim, and then all of the sudden, paparazzi came around the corner.” Siwa seemed to claim that the swatting had been carried out due to a call from paparazzi, who may have hoped to be the first to snap some photos of the star after her announcement. While this claim has yet to be confirmed, it’s obvious that swatting is never okay under any circumstances. Swatting refers to prank calls that aim to send a number of armed police offers to a person’s home address, usually with allegations that the target is breaking the law or endangering others. While it was no doubt a traumatizing experience for Siwa, she’s maintaining a positive attitude and hopes the caller will face consequences for their actions. The star also revealed she’d filmed the whole ordeal and will upload the video to her YouTube channel sometime in the near future.

JoJo Siwa roasted over “cringe” Karma choreography: “Worst dance move in history” TikTok: itsjojosiwaJoJo Siwa has been a dancer for several years, but she’s facing criticism for her “cringe” choreography for her new song ‘Karma.’ On April 5, singer and dancer JoJo Siwa debuted her single ‘Karma.’ Prior to the song’s release, JoJo warned her fans that she’d be entering a phase of her life that may be “disturbing or offensive to some viewers.” She then began showcasing sexualized dance moves and wearing out-of-the-ordinary outfits, making those who were once her fans renounce the internet icon. What’s more, in preparation for the release of ‘Karma,’ JoJo choreographed a dance for its music video. Though she has experience in the dancing world, having been on Dance Moms from 2015-2016, JoJo’s new choreography has fans roasting her “cringe” moves. “She took everything she knew about dancing and threw it out the window… If I use this at the club, someone is probably calling the paramedics thinking I’m seizing,” YouTuber MoistCr1TiKaL said in a video dedicated to talking about JoJo’s “trash moves.” “JoJo Siwa’s demon is trying to leave her body out of cringe but she uses that dance move as a reverse exorcism to keep it inside,” added a viewer. “It seems like she accidentally gripped a power line and her whole body is convulsing from the strong electrical current that is frying her body,” said another. Posters on X haven’t let up on roasting JoJo for her choreography either. One person deemed her dance “disturbing,” while another couldn’t help but make a montage of JoJo performing the dance because it was just that “hideous.” i miss the cringe bow and rainbow girlypop she once was☹️ this is kinda disturbing ngl #jojosiwa #Karma #dancemoms #abbyleemiller — cora (@cocoralinee) May 2, 2024 Not only has JoJo’s choreography for ‘Karma’ been in question, but she also allegedly copied TikToker Emeline’s beat to a song entitled the same name, as Emeline uploaded her version to TikTok in October 2022, long before the release of JoJo’s song. JoJo was also under fire on social media for saying she wanted to create a new genre of music called “gap pop.” In an interview with Billboard in April, she compared the new genre to K-pop. However, many people called her out for not having any influence on gay pop, as they said artists like David Bowie and Freddie Mercury had already established the genre. Though JoJo has faced more than enough criticism for her new era, it hasn’t slowed her down in the slightest, as she continues to showcase her ‘Karma’ dance anywhere she can.

JoJo Siwa reveals crazy extent haters will go to harass her in real life NBC News, YouTube[jwplayer h3XPfMqQ]Social media star and pop icon JoJo Siwa is known for her colorful attire, bright bows, and beaming personality — but even the net’s most positive influencer faces intense harassment both on and offline. 17-year-old JoJo Siwa is no stranger to criticism, with the diamond-studded star facing backlash over her over-the-top appearance, high ponytail, and history in reality TV throughout her wildly successful career. However, Siwa has most recently come under fire for her “NONSTOP” music video in which a dancer was painted and dressed like a monkey to fit with the video’s circus theme — which some critics claimed was outright “blackface.” After hitting back at these comments in a pointed Instagram post, the former Dance Moms star revealed that the hate isn’t always limited to the online world, admitting that trolls will sometimes even show up to her home to yell rude comments in person. “I’ve heard everything under the sun about me,” she explained in a June 30 interview with NBC Nightly News: Kids Edition. “I’ve heard my hairline, I’ve heard I’m a baby, I’ve heard I’m a giant toddler, I’ve heard I’m a brat, I’ve heard I’m fat.” https://www.instagram.com/p/CB395UrHHL1/?utm_source=ig_embed “I try to respond with comedy,” she continued. “People will drive by the house actually and shout out very mean things. And I always come up with the funniest comebacks. …It can be hard. It hurts, but as a person, you want people to be nice — and you’re never, ever gonna please everybody.” (Topic begins at 13:35) Although JoJo’s story comes as a shock, she isn’t the only top star to have been met with uncomfortable situations in real life due to her online status; even TikTok star Bryce Hall revealed that the Sway House crew had to move, after their address leaked online and fans came in droves to their home for a chance of meeting the boys. With the current online culture in a midst of a great “spring cleaning” of sorts, it seems like influencers are facing backlash left and right — but Siwa isn’t letting the hate bring her down, deciding to transform anger into laughter.

JoJo Siwa reveals five celebrities she would “never” have on her podcast Instagram: jojosiwanowpodcastJoJo Siwa opened up about the special guests she would never have on her podcast, as well as adding one person she would actually love to host. In the latest episode of her ‘JoJo Siwa Now’ podcast episode on August 6, artist and content creator JoJo Siwa dished about the top five people she refuses to have as a guest on her podcast. “We’re about to get messy,” she started. “The thing is, I don’t believe in being a d*ck for views. But if you try it with me, game on – if you open that door, I will walk through it.” She went on to list political commentator Candance Owens as the first person she does “not f*ck with.” Allegedly, two years ago, Candace slammed JoJo for being a lesbian, something she announced to the world in 2021 when she was 17 years old. “Home-girl thought I was faking being a lesbian… How do you know my sexual orientation?” she exclaimed. Next on her list was Full House actress Candance Cameron Bure, who JoJo said she started beef with “on accident” after saying Candance was the “rudest” celebrity she had ever encountered. However, after they settled their online dispute, Candance allegedly came out and said she “only” wanted “traditional marriage” depicted in film – leading JoJo to put her back on her sh*tlist. The third person she would never allow on her podcast was content creator Trisha Paytas. “This is tough for me, because me and Trisha were friends,” JoJo said. “Trisha has a lot of sh*t to say about me nowadays.” The ‘Karma’ singer went on to say that her 14-year-old self would be heartbroken if she knew how Trisha was going to treat her later in her life, as she was that young when the two began making online content together. JoJo then added a “lover” of hers to her list in order to keep her life more public. “I want somebody who is dating me for the right reasons,” she said. The only exception to that rule would be if she was married to someone. She finished her list by including most of her exes, despite saying that there was one particular ex of hers that she would welcome on her podcast. Though she had a clear list of people who were not welcomed on her podcast, JoJo did say that she would have loved to host singer and performer Freddie Mercury, as she draws inspiration from the ‘Living On My Own’ artist.

JoJo Siwa responds to backlash over “inappropriate” questions in kids game Instagram: JoJo SiwaJoJo Siwa has apologized after a card game she brought out for kids in 2018 faced complaints about age-inappropriate playing cards. Tween influencer JoJo Siwa has her own card game for kids aged 6 and up called “JoJo’s juice” which was marketed to her typically very young audience. However, the game has had serious backlash from parents who have pointed out that many of the questions, which are in a “Truth or Dare” format, are aimed at older players. The questions in the game include “how well do you know JoJo?” or asks how well the players know each other. However, parents on social media have reported questions such as “have you ever stolen from a store?” or “have you ever been walked in on?” Other age-inappropriate questions that found complaints were “Have you ever kissed a boy?,” “have you learned the art of twerking?” and “Who in this room would you most like to date?” The backlash recently came to a head when Spin Master, the manufacturer behind the game, announced that they would pull the game. In a statement to Insider, they said, “We respect and value the relationship JoJo Siwa has with her fans and take the concerns raised regarding the game ‘JoJo’s Juice’ very seriously…This game is no longer being manufactured and we have requested that retailers pull any remaining product from their shelves.” Meanwhile, JoJo herself took to Instagram and TikTok to address the issues. In a short video, she said “Now, when companies make these games, they don’t run every aspect by me, so I had no idea of the types of questions that were on these playing cards.” “I hope you all know that I would have never ever, ever approved or agreed to be associated with this game if I would have seen these cards before they started selling it.” JoJo also confirmed that the game would no longer be sold.

JoJo Siwa reveals “amazing” girlfriend who inspired her coming out announcement YouTube: It’s JoJo SiwaYouTube star and pop singer JoJo Siwa has unveiled her relationship status in wake of her coming out announcement in January — while also admitting she “could have lost everything” because of it. It’s no overstatement to say that JoJo Siwa is a massive icon among young internet users. Best known for her positive pop songs, colorful clothing and rainbow-studded bows, Siwa represents everything bright and happy in a world currently beset with health anxieties. Boasting over 12 million subscribers on YouTube and 31 million followers on TikTok, Siwa has even scored her very own line of slime and hair bows, breaking out into the mainstream in a huge way. However, Siwa made international headlines for a different reason in late January, after officially coming out by posting a photo of herself wearing a shirt she’d been gifted from her cousin. The shirt boasted large lettering that read: “Best. Gay. Cousin. Ever.” https://twitter.com/itsjojosiwa/status/1352719582977355777?s=20 A few weeks later, Siwa appeared on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, revealing that her collaboration with the Pride House had actually inspired her to make the announcement. It wasn’t the Pride House, alone, though; Siwa admitted that her girlfriend had also encouraged her to make the big reveal, who she happened to be FaceTiming in the middle of her internet-breaking announcement. “It is true — I have the most amazing, wonderful, perfect, most beautiful girlfriend in the whole world,” a beaming Siwa said. “That’s not something I’m ashamed of.” (Topic begins at 1:30) “We’re long distance,” she continued. “And I was like, ‘Alright, I did it! Back to FaceTiming with her.’ And then, two days later, I was on the phone with her — we’re on the phone literally 24/7, both of our families get so annoyed at us, but it’s okay, it doesn’t matter!” Read More: Is TikTok’s silhouette challenge dangerous? – Despite the massive amounts of praise she’s received since coming out, Siwa was well-aware of the risk she took in doing so, considering the amount of people following her online — but to Siwa, being true to herself is more important than the social media empire she’s built, if she can’t live authentically. “I was like, you know what I realized? How risky that was,” she added. “And she was like, ‘What do you mean?’ Technically, that was a really big risk that I took, posting that. …but if I lost everything that I’ve created because of being myself and loving who I love, I don’t want it.”

Since the release of Karma, Siwa has been doing the rounds on various podcasts, many of which have asked her what inspired her new look. After all, fans have come to expect to see Siwa in a colorful palette, not the dark and grungy look she is sporting in the Karma music video. This controversy all came to a head when Siwa claimed in an interview with Billboard that Karma is a part of a whole new genre of music she wants to champion called gay pop. “When I first signed with Columbia [Records], I said I wanted to start a new genre of music,” Siwa told Billboard News. “They said, ‘What do you mean?’ and I said, ‘It’s called “gay pop”.’ It’s like K-Pop, but it’s gay pop.’ JoJo Siwa slammed for claiming she invented a new music genre This statement from Siwa was immediately met with backlash online, many calling the performer out for claiming gay pop is a new genre for music when the likes of Freddy Mercury and Elton John have been in the music business for decades.

Of all the backlash, one particular instance that garnered the biggest response online was when openly queer pop duo Tegan & Sara duetted her comments on TikTok. The two women don’t speak at all but their faces say it all. Siwa must be completely unaware of their decades-long musical output. However, in a new interview with SiriusXM’s Hits 1 Miami with Mack & Jen, Siwa clarified what she meant with these initial comments. “So, here’s the thing. Gay pop, right, is a thing that people have done, but it is not an official genre of music,” she told the program. “You know what I mean? It is a style, but it is how there’s rap, there’s rock, there’s R&B, there’s pop. Gay pop is not an official genre of music. If you look on the iTunes charts, there is no… there’s a pop chart.” Siwa continued to elaborate on her initial comments, doubling down on the notion that anything she said would garner backlash due to the nature of the internet. “I could say I want world peace, and everyone would be like, ‘How dare you want peace for the world…It’s kind of crazy. People ask me all the time, they’re like, Do you feel like you have to be very careful about what you say? I’m like, “No, because no matter what I say, it’s going down anyway.”
